2003 GMC C5500 Topkick Brake Caliper

What do brake calipers do?

When you press the brake pedal of your car the caliper makes sure that the vehicle stops on time. The caliper of the braking system squeezes the brake pads which causes the rotor to slow down by causing friction. This friction is so strong that it can stop a vehicle at high speed in almost no time. The amount of force you put on the brake pedal determines how tightly the caliper will squeeze the brake pads.
