5. Zasady działania

The disc brake caliper is a vital part of your vehicle's hydraulic braking system. When the brake pedal is pressed, hydraulic pressure forces the caliper's pistons to move, clamping the brake pads against the rotating brake rotor. This friction converts kinetic energy into heat, slowing down the wheel and, consequently, the vehicle.

5.1 Superior Sealing Performance

• Dual-seal: Designed to avoid brake fluid leakage and ensure excellent braking capacity.
• Okładka ochronna: Prolongs the service life of the product by preventing dust and debris from entering the piston area.
