2. Brake fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid

   The brake fluid in the tubes, in turn, pressurizes the brake slave cylinders, which are on each wheel. [22] [23] The slave cylinder pistons press down the brake pads. They encompass and compress the brake disk, and the rotation of the wheels slows down. In addition to transmitting pressure, brake fluid also keeps the brake system working optimally.

3. 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 ...

4. Hydraulic fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_fluid

   Brake fluid is a subtype of hydraulic fluid with high boiling point, both when new (specified by the equilibrium boiling point) and after absorption of water vapor (specified by wet boiling point). Under the heat of braking, both free water and water vapor in a braking system can boil into a compressible vapor, resulting in brake failure. [7]

   Clean brake fluid is crucial to a modern ABS brake system. Several manufacturers recommend brake fluid replacement every 30,000 miles.

6. Brake fade - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fade

   Brake fade caused by overheating brake fluid (often called Pedal Fade) can also be reduced through the use of thermal barriers that are placed between the brake pad and the brake caliper piston, these reduce the transfer of heat from the pad to the caliper and in turn hydraulic brake fluid. Some high-performance racing calipers already include ...

   A: If you are happy with the condition of the rotors, you may just have to knock rust off the edge. If you are removing the rotors, make sure there is no rust under the rotors up against the hub.

   SF: servo brake PF: Brake Pump SLF: Brake Fluid Reservoir RF: Splitter braking FS: Parking Brake. Frictional brakes are most common and can be divided broadly into "shoe" or "pad" brakes, using an explicit wear surface, and hydrodynamic brakes, such as parachutes, which use friction in a working fluid and do not explicitly wear. Typically the ...
