Functions of brake calipers: Brake calipers are designed to decelerate moving wheels, bring them to a stop, or maintain a stopped state. They are typically used in disc brake systems and are the protruding parts on the outer side of the brake pads that enhance braking performance. Calipers are equipped with dust boots to prevent impurities from damaging the pistons and also include anti-rattle clips to secure the brake pads, reducing noise during daily use. Classification of caliper colors: Black brake calipers are the most common and are generally used in Porsche's entry-level models such as the Boxster and base versions of the Cayenne. Silver brake calipers are an upgraded version of black ones, usually found in enhanced versions of entry-level models and many mid-level models, such as the Carrera in the 911 series. Red brake calipers represent a new brake system characterized by larger brake disc sizes. For example, the Cayman S sports version comes standard with a red-caliper brake system. Red brake calipers are also quite common in Porsche's mid-range vehicles.
