2. Brake bleeding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_bleeding

   Brake bleeding is the procedure performed on hydraulic brake systems whereby the brake lines (the pipes and hoses containing the brake fluid) are purged of any air bubbles. This is necessary because, while the brake fluid is an incompressible liquid , air bubbles are compressible gas and their presence in the brake system greatly reduces the ...

3. Brake lining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_lining

   The brake lining may also become contaminated by oil or leaked brake fluid. Typical symptoms will be brake chatter, where the pads vibrate as the lining grabs and releases the rotor's surface. The solution is to repair and clean the source of the contamination, replace the damaged pads and possibly also have the rotors re-skimmed or replaced if ...

4. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

   Hydraulic brake. A schematic illustrating the major components of a hydraulic disc brake system. A hydraulic brake is an arrangement of braking mechanism which uses brake fluid, typically containing glycol ethers or diethylene glycol, to transfer pressure from the controlling mechanism to the braking mechanism.

5. Braided stainless steel brake lines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braided_stainless_steel...

   Braided stainless steel brake lines (also known as braided stainless steel brake hoses) are flexible hoses fitted to a hydraulic brake system. The intent of braided stainless steel brake lines is to improve brake system effectiveness and longevity as compared to an equivalent system fitted with flexible rubber hoses through near-elimination of hose expansion.

6. Disc brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_brake

   Disc brake. Close-up of a disc brake on a Renault car. A disc brake is a type of brake that uses the calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc or a rotor [ 1] to create friction. [ 2] There are two basic types of brake pad friction mechanisms: abrasive friction and adherent friction. [ 3]

7. Brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake

   Brake. A brake is a mechanical device that inhibits motion by absorbing energy from a moving system. [ 1] It is used for slowing or stopping a moving vehicle, wheel, axle, or to prevent its motion, most often accomplished by means of friction. [ 2]
