Description

What does a brake caliper carrier slide do?

The brake caliper carrier slide functions as a vital guide component within the air disc brake system. On floating-type calipers, this part allows the caliper body to travel back and forth on its pins rather than being bolted rigidly, which ensures that braking force is transferred evenly onto the disc surface. Using high-strength components helps maintain precise axial movement during heavy-duty operation.

Vehicle and system compatibility

This specific carrier slide is compatible with 22.5" diameter brake systems used in heavy commercial vehicle applications. It is engineered to meet the technical requirements of professional workshop technicians maintaining truck and bus axles.

Installation and maintenance

For proper maintenance, technicians should verify the existing pin's diameter and length before replacement. Ensuring correct fitment is essential to prevent uneven brake wear or restricted caliper movement. Always check that the slide matches the specific requirements of the installed caliper family.

Troubleshooting and selection

Consult your authorized distributor for further assistance.

FAQ

What is the function of a caliper carrier slide?
The slide allows the floating caliper to move axially on its carrier, ensuring even pressure application against the brake disc during deceleration.
How do I ensure I have the correct size for my brakes?
It is important to measure the diameter and length of the existing pin with a caliper gauge, as even small differences can affect the slide travel.
What are common symptoms of a worn caliper slide?
Uneven brake pad wear or uneven braking force on the disc are common signs that the guide pins or slides require inspection or replacement.
Can any slide be used for any 22.5" brake system?
No, you must identify the specific caliper family and axle position to ensure the slide provides the correct movement and fitment.
