Galvanised Mechanical Brake Caliper

Description

Disc brakes are used for applications where resistance to corrosion and heat dissipation is paramount. The open nature of disc brakes makes washing after salt water immersion a simple task. Disc brakes also allow quicker cooling during brake applications and therefore the disc brake system is less prone to brake fade.

AL-KO mechanical disc brake calipers are hot dip galvanised. The bushes, springs and bolts etc are made from stainless steel. The slide pins are made from stainless steel adding to the excellent capacity of this product to continue to function after exposure to corrosive environments. AL-KO mechanical calipers are suitable for disc hubs and rotors of thicknesses from 12mm to 15mm.
