This short and simple explainer guides you through the working of typical disk brakes found in cars and light vehicles. See the end of the video for interactive examples.
It has been bugging me for ages how both pads apply an equal amount of pressure, and this video has cleared everything up... Thank you for publishing it...

Exactly, some of other videos demonstrates like disc moves sideways. But this video shows exactly how two pads actually work.
you have shown how the brakes are squeezed & thus causing the friction to slow down the vehicle - here’s the question: how does the brake pads move back to a ready position? does it get slammed back in position once the hold of the caliper gets released?
Thank you very much, great video ... I have a question please< Is there a space between the break pad and the break disc? Or the break pad is in in contact condition to the break disk
There is a extremely small little gap a tiny bit of play when you put the bread pads on the caliber the break caliber hold the break pad away from the disk under pressure and when you push the break pedal it adds more pressure and makes the break pad push against the disk on both sides
@@Natsuki_Cover fk that bish natsuki, Yuri no1. And yh i found out the pads arent pulled away at all, it just touces slightly with the rotor disk after reasling brake peddle, but since there is no pressure apply, theres hardly any friction.
That is down to the construction and technology used. They withstand huge forces of heat and pressure. As you will appreciate, manufacturers invest significant sums to make brakes optimised for certain conditions and applications. More to them (composition) wise than meets the eye.
Sorry, but the explanation about the movement sequence of the pads is incorrect. The piston stops moving at the first contact with the disc, not because it finished its travel. For continuing its pressure the piston needs a counter part for pushing, and that is why the caliper moves in order to create the opposite brake pad contact.
Think it’s semantics. It has finished its travel, it stops but thanks for adding as the principle is important and interesting, the other side travels because the first can’t continue and it’s quite a clever yet simple mechanism. Equal and opposite and all that. All constructive comments are appreciated and hopefully this will shed more light or discussion for some, thank you.
That was awesome, thanks for explaining how both pads engage with a piston that only goes one way lol it was keeping me awake last night.

I love this video, so explanatory
Excellent explanation indeed!
This was well explained. Thank you
Perfect demonstration
Marvelous!! Thank you for such explanation with 3D animation.
Glad it was helpful!
Really
mindblowing explanation..
Thank you ❤
Thanks, really helpful :)
good video, easy to understand
Perfect video and thanks,, for the good information.......
Great! Explanation
Awesome video
Great
Thank you so much
Great video 🎉
Superb explanation
Very nice 👍. Congratulations.
Very nice video thanks 👍
How long piston can travel? I'm thinking to use it's squeezing mechanism for another project
great job 👌👌👌

The little o ring
yeah this is the part I dont understand as well.
Thanks for teach
Thank you ❤🧢✌
wow amaizing
anyone know if this is the same for an electric scooter. I've read that disc braking systems are common in that..
Great video 👍
Thanks.

There is a extremely small little gap a tiny bit of play when you put the bread pads on the caliber the break caliber hold the break pad away from the disk under pressure and when you push the break pedal it adds more pressure and makes the break pad push against the disk on both sides
If the break pads always rubbed against the disk then you would smell hot breaks and would have no breaks very soon
@@jamesmiller4085 how does the caliber pull the pads away when pedal is released?
@@zzh315I have the same question and I’m still finding the answer of it :O

Very nice explain sir

Greattt 👍
How does the brake pad or the brake disc not break from all the friction
That is down to the construction and technology used. They withstand huge forces of heat and pressure. As you will appreciate, manufacturers invest significant sums to make brakes optimised for certain conditions and applications. More to them (composition) wise than meets the eye.
how the fluid passes through that bolt bro it has two paths across threads .. what if we haven't matched the path with hole of flex hose
Disaster! Clutch lore.
heh, he said nuts
Thanksm
❤❤❤❤
👍👍🥰🥰
how does this small metal clip keep anything in place ? it looks so useless
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
