Introduction to brake caliper and guide pin lubricant: Ecco-Grease-EM71-2 special grease for plastic and rubber is a lubricating grease made from polyether synthetic oil as the base oil, special lithium soap as the thickener, and refined with various additives such as antioxidants, anti-corrosion agents, and anti-aging agents. This plastic and rubber compatible grease is designed for the assembly lubrication of rubber, plastic, and metal components that are sensitive to most greases, such as ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, and natural rubber. It features excellent adhesion, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. 2. Brake caliper: An essential component of the chassis braking system, its main function is to push the brake pads, which then rub against the brake drum to reduce speed and bring the vehicle to a stop. When the brake pedal is pressed, the master cylinder generates thrust to push hydraulic oil to the caliper, and the piston inside the caliper moves under hydraulic pressure to push the brake pads.
