Automotive Brake Caliper
An automotive brake caliper is a device that houses the brake pads and pistons in a disc brake system. It is responsible for gripping the brake rotor to slow down or stop the vehicle when the brake pedal is pressed. Brake calipers are typically made of metal and come in various designs, such as floating calipers, sliding calipers, and fixed calipers. They play a crucial role in ensuring the safety and efficiency of a vehicle's braking system.
