Task 5 - Brake Callipers and Discs
Brake callipers and discs, like the braking system are different in design due to the demands and
environment they are used.
Road disc and callipers are designed for durability, longevity, low cost maintenance and good
overall performance in a variety of conditions. Competition vehicle disc and callipers are design
for ultimate performance. They are able to withstand high temperatures and easy maintenance
however at a very high cost. Inspect samples of vehicle discs and callipers to understand their
construction and materials used. Complete the following questions:
