Bendix Draws Attention to 5 Symptoms of a Bad Brake Calliper

Bendix Brake Calliper

According to Bendix, when a calliper is not functioning well, the car will usually show warning signs to alert the driver. 

Bad Brake Callipers Affect Brake Performance

When it comes to the brake system, we often pay more attention to the brake pads, disc rotor and brake fluid. However, according to brake manufacturer Bendix, there is one crucial component  that is frequently neglected – the Brake Callipers.

The brake callipers, Bendix explains work together with the brake pads and disc rotors, along with the rest of the hydraulic system, to slow and stop the vehicle. When the brake pedal is pressed, brake fluid pressure is pushed through the master cylinder to the calliper, which extends the piston and forces the brake pads against the disc rotors to slow the car. Over time, brake callipers are subjected to intense heat, which is generated when braking. This weakens the callipers and will ultimately affect the car’s braking performance. When a calliper is not functioning well, Bendix pointed out that the car will usually show the following warning signs to alert the driver:

奔德士提请驾驶人注意刹车卡钳损坏的五个症状

说到刹车系统,我们往往更关注刹车片、刹车盘和刹车油。然而,据刹车制造商奔德士表示,刹车卡钳是一个至关重要,但却经常被人们忽视的部件。

奔德士说,刹车卡钳与刹车片,还有刹车盘和液压系统的其余部分一起工作,以便将车速减慢和让车子停下来。当驾驶人踩下刹车踏板,压缩主刹车泵内的刹车油,刹车油会推动活塞,使刹车片与刹车盘接触造成阻力,从而使汽车减速。随着时间的推移,刹车卡钳会因长期遭受刹车时产生的强烈热量而变坏,从而影响汽车的刹车性能。当卡钳无法正常工作时,奔德士指出,汽车通常会通过以下的症状来提醒驾驶人:

1 驾车时总感觉刹车器一直处于开启状态

即使您的脚离开刹车踏板,也感觉刹车器始终处于开启状态,那么很有可能是刹车卡钳被卡住了。肮脏的卡钳可能会以一种不允许刹车片完全释放的方式卡住…….
