Deemaxx Caliper Suit 2750Kg Maxx Coating

This Caliper has a “floating” design.

Advantages of a floating calliper:

• Smaller
• Lighter
• Easy to mount
• Easier to package

A floating calliper, common on production vehicles, has a piston or pistons only on the inboard side of the calliper. The floating calliper is mounted on pins or slides so that when the piston extends and presses the inboard pad against the rotor, the whole body of the calliper slides on its pins or guides in the opposite direction, bringing the outboard pad into contact with the rotor.

Additionally, floating calipers:

• Cool better as the fluid and piston are only on the inboard side of the rotor
• Have fewer moving parts and seals to leak or wear out
• More easily incorporates a cable-operated parking brake
