Will a Screw-On Caliper Cover Fall Off?
1 Answers
Correctly installed screw-on caliper covers will not fall off. Here is relevant information: 1. Potential Hazards: If low-quality materials are used, there is a possibility the caliper cover may fall off. In fact, such additional caliper covers pose certain safety risks. The braking system generates significant heat during braking, and the temperature of the braking system affects the vehicle's braking performance. Additional caliper covers can reduce the cooling efficiency of the brakes, making them more prone to heat fade to some extent. Therefore, it is not recommended to install caliper covers. 2. Reasons: Brake calipers are not conducive to the cooling of the braking system. Especially during long downhill descents, the temperature of the brake discs generally increases significantly after installing caliper covers. During long downhill descents, you should not rely solely on braking; you should also downshift to increase engine RPM and let the engine share some of the braking force.
