Parking Brake Calipers
Parking brake calipers are mechanical components used in automotive braking systems to engage the parking brake. They are typically mounted on the rear wheels of a vehicle and are responsible for clamping down on the brake rotor to prevent the vehicle from moving when parked. Parking brake calipers are designed to provide a secure and reliable hold on the brake rotor, ensuring the vehicle remains stationary even on inclines. These calipers are separate from the primary brake calipers used for regular braking and are operated by a separate lever or pedal inside the vehicle.
