Why DFC Newly Manufactured Brake Calipers Are Built to Last

Why DFC Newly Manufactured Brake Calipers Are Built to Last

Understanding Brake Caliper Functionality Brake calipers are integral to a vehicle’s braking system, housing the brake pads and pistons that clamp onto the brake rotors when the brakes are applied. This clamping action is crucial for safe and efficient braking performance. When the brake pedal is pressed, the master cylinder sends brake fluid through hoses and tubes to the caliper. The caliper then applies pressure to the brake pads, causing them to grip the rotor. This pressure is evenly distributed across the rotor, allowing the vehicle to come to a smooth and controlled stop. The caliper’s ability to apply consistent […]
