This is exactly what I was looking for- a brief summary of how brakes work with the parts identified. I also chose this video from the options available because of Raymond Scott’s song “Bendix, the Tomorrow People” and J Dilla’s sample of that song
That is without doubt the best video I or anybody else could possibly see to help in understanding the caliper. No fancy gimmicks or flash photography - just plain language. Up until then I only had a vague idea of how the setup worked. Thank you so much for such a clear explanation.
1:24 The calliper is fed brake fluid, which pushes the brake pad against the disc using a hydraulic system. Search up hydraulics and you will understand how it works, it retracts because the hydraulic pressure is retracted retracting the calliper which is connected to the disc after you take your foot off the brake pad.
you never leave the contact. If you slightly increase the gap between the pads and the disc you lose your brakes and need to press multiple times to bring it back
so when you press the brakes there’s lines and cables connected to each of the tires with a liquid inside, when you push the brakes it forces pressure into those cables with the liquid forcing the liquid to move to the brake pads (if that makes sense) and when u let go of the brake it’s letting air back in (less pressure) on the liquid to not be pushing against the brake pad.
👍 thanks sir for make this impressive animation video to easily understand the working principle of the bike braking system, sir I also interested to know the name of software used to create this impressive video
The piston will retract once the pedal is decompressed. This is due to the brake cylinder creating a vacuum as it moves in the opposite direction. As for the brake pads themselves. They will be forced away from the disk due to the inertial force generated by the moving disk. This is why it's important that the retaining clips are replaced with new ones that will come with the new brake pads. The new pads will also come with some grease to ensure the pads are able to move freely in the retaining bracket. It's also important to clean up the caliper bracket with something like a wire brush. Make sure when applying the grease that it's only applied to the retaining clips/brakets. If grease is allowed to get on the pads or disk, expect to run into some problems.
@@marktaylor171bro when u said pads will b forced away from the disc due to inertial force thats right but i would like to add something very peculiar to it so that people who read the comments can clarify their problms properly i would like to add that when brake pedal is applied the piston as well as the pins which are directly above and beneath the piston contract and retract as well and when we aplly the brake and losen it ,but if the pins are stuck and have the debree in that or are having a play in that case if brakes are applied or released they get stuck to the rotar discs . So the both pins must be checked when ever we are having vibrations to aur brake caliper or the brake pads are stuck to the rotar hence causing friction even after releasing the brake pedal n by the ways no offence to ur comment respect ur opinion as well 🤟
Loved it. I know it's a small thing, but it would have been better if the camera wasn't panning around the rotor in the beginning, that makes it a little harder to see what's going on.
Hello. I'm still curious on why the pads are only 60degrees at best from the total 360 degrees of the wheel ? Won't a full circular breakpad work even better ? Or at least dual-breakpads.
nice, thanks to this video now i understand how the outter brake pad is pressed onto the rotor, was a mystery to me 😂, why its so important to lube them guide pins
I don't understand how the outer pad moves in towards the disc rotor when the brakes pressure is applied. The inner pad I can understand is being pushed by the piston towards the disc rotor, but the outer pad? How does the slide pins achieve the opposite movement? I can't visualize it.
To Visualize it please watch the video to the end, it clearly shows the movement of the caliper on the slide pins once brake fluid pressure is applied.
Yeah I've been struggling to understand that as well. I've got it now! Watch this video in slow motion, press the 3 dots near the top right of the video and adjust the speed. You'll see that once the piston has pushed the inner pad onto the disc, that same pressure from the piston will then push the caliper in the opposite direction, pulling the outer pad with it towards the outer side of the disc.
I don't see any springs. I understand the caliper/piston pushing the pads against the rotor, but what causes the pads to retract once the pressure is reduced?
How do the brakes retract from the rotor? A couple of arrows showing which directions the various components act upon another should suffice, but sadly non-existent. Nice graphics but very poor animation is my conclusion.
I would presume when you take your foot of the break pedal, it stops pumping brake fluid into the caliper, and it naturally retracts back to its normal position
does the piston retract when you come off the brakes? i have replaced my rear discs and pads and im getting an annoying rubbing and clicking sound. The inside pad was really tight to get in. I might need to file off a bit from the lugs
Hello dear Dr Davood Khademi Is here I think this comment will make your viewers think deep.. Why are there holes on the disk & those lines in an x form ? I think you missed to talk about which is one of the basics..
excellent animation, good-looking parts, and a clear explanation with exploded view of internals and showing the brake oil flow.

But what causes the brake pads to go back, and not stay stuck against the brake disc?

@@alexmk43🎉🎉
Vacuum within the brake lines
@@alexmk43they also come with little pins you attach to both pads that push them apart, or the ones I’ve seen at least
you never leave the contact. If you slightly increase the gap between the pads and the disc you lose your brakes and need to press multiple times to bring it back
Brilliant explanation, thank you!
Thanks very clear and well.made video and explanation. Keep the good work going. Cheers mate
Perfectly explained, Thanks!
Thanks! I enjoyed this video. Very easy to understand
Absolutely beautiful presentation!!
thank you
how do the breaks return to the starting position?
so when you press the brakes there’s lines and cables connected to each of the tires with a liquid inside, when you push the brakes it forces pressure into those cables with the liquid forcing the liquid to move to the brake pads (if that makes sense) and when u let go of the brake it’s letting air back in (less pressure) on the liquid to not be pushing against the brake pad.
Superb details & explanation!!! Thank you very much!!!
Good video. :)
Thank you Dear 😊❤️
👏👏👏 thank you very much ..very clear explanation
Execellent information presentation. I loved it. Thank you.
Good explanation plus u called the name of parts which is handy to know that what parts and what they exactly do
Awesome thanks
Best explanation ever.

Excellent. 👌 My congratulations.
What prevents the brake pads from constantly rubbing against the rotor when brakes are not applied, since brake pads move freely within the bracket?
The piston will retract once the pedal is decompressed. This is due to the brake cylinder creating a vacuum as it moves in the opposite direction. As for the brake pads themselves. They will be forced away from the disk due to the inertial force generated by the moving disk. This is why it's important that the retaining clips are replaced with new ones that will come with the new brake pads.

The part we all want to know is , what makes the slide pins move back away from disk?
great work . keep teaching us
Great video
Super video is this
Great info.

@@BatlleIsMine Yes mate. you are correct. a brilliant solution. one piston yet able to move the pads on the opposite side....
How does the brake slow down the car vs stop it immediately based on force applied?
Nice sir 👌👍
Very helpful FINNALY understanding brakes and they’re components
Hiw does the pad retract back when it is not attached to the caliper?
Good question, I don’t believe it does it retracts back naturally as you lift of the brake and the piston is then no longer pressing it solidly
Is there a video on how drum brakes work?
I don't see any springs. I understand the caliper/piston pushing the pads against the rotor, but what causes the pads to retract once the pressure is reduced?
The piston is retracted by its internal seal the pads just relax .
that is why your inner brake pad wears out more than outside. so make sure to check the inner pad for inspection when you want to change the pads.
Would the brake wear be faster on the inner pad? It looks like it needs to contact first for it to hold
It happens so quickly that its a none issue in regards to pad wear.
awesome explanation
nice
nice la
How do the brakes retract from the rotor? A couple of arrows showing which directions the various components act upon another should suffice, but sadly non-existent. Nice graphics but very poor animation is my conclusion.
True. Good question! Maybe a return spring or something like that, similar to drum brakes?
whats causing it to retract?
I would like to know that too
I would presume when you take your foot of the break pedal, it stops pumping brake fluid into the caliper, and it naturally retracts back to its normal position
It was carefully teaching
does the piston retract when you come off the brakes? i have replaced my rear discs and pads and im getting an annoying rubbing and clicking sound. The inside pad was really tight to get in. I might need to file off a bit from the lugs
We suggest seeing your local mechanic to solve any braking issue
Does the brake pad touch the rotor when not in use?
Yes, just not as much pressure
OOOOHH I see how it works now

Mounting bolt position in the ficture is wrong I think
No it is correct Jonathan!
no it is correct jonathan ! now sit back down and finish your plate.
@@DarkIzo what do you mean?
Hello dear Dr Davood Khademi Is here I think this comment will make your viewers think deep..
Why are there holes on the disk & those lines in an x form ? I think you missed to talk about which is one of the basics..
how reliable is this break system?
this so downey, how can inner brake pad stop touching disc, not like the pad is sticky piston
I’m supposed to be studying
...
I understood why it worked but never how it worked, if you understand what I'm saying 😅
