3522032 Compatible Brake Caliper Carrier Slide

What does a brake caliper carrier slide do?

This brake caliper carrier slide serves as a critical guide component within the pneumatic disc brake system. It allows the caliper to slide axially on its carrier, ensuring that braking forces are distributed evenly across the disc surface during heavy-duty operation. Built with high-strength components, this part maintains the necessary tolerances for consistent braking performance in demanding environments.

Vehicle and system compatibility

This component is designed for heavy commercial vehicles and is compatible with DAF, Ford Trucks, Ford Otosan, Otokar, and Renault Trucks. It is also suitable for use within Knorr-Bremse systems and other major pneumatic brake assemblies used on truck and bus axles.

Installation and maintenance

During installation, technicians should ensure the slide pins are properly seated and free of debris to prevent uneven pad wear. This part is often inspected during scheduled brake service or when replacing brake pads to ensure the sliding mechanism remains smooth and responsive.

System reliability

Maintaining the integrity of the caliper slide is vital for preventing vibrations or uneven disc wear. Regular checks of the carrier assembly help ensure long-term reliability for fleet vehicles.
