Disc Brake System: Description

The disc brake system consists of the following components:

1. Disc Brake Pads  - Applies mechanical output force from the hydraulic brake calipers to friction surfaces of brake rotors.
2. Disc Brake Rotors  - Uses mechanical output force applied to friction surfaces from the disc brake pads to slow speed of tire and wheel assembly rotation.
3. Disc Brake Pad Hardware  - Secures disc brake pads firmly in proper relationship to the hydraulic brake calipers; enables a sliding motion of brake pads when mechanical output force is applied.
4. Disc Brake Caliper Hardware  - Provides mounting for hydraulic brake caliper and secures the caliper firmly in proper relationship to caliper bracket. Enables a sliding motion of the brake caliper to the brake pads when mechanical output force is applied.
