The design of brake caliper screw

If we are talking about this part, it is also important to say a word about main malfunctions:

1. if the screw is damaged, if the plug is worn out, the part rusts and leaks;
2. if the caliper body is deformed as a result of an impact or a sharp collision with an obstacle;
3. screws for the brake system often break during non-professional (“garage”) pumping.

The part must be checked regularly for leaks and for obvious signs of rust. To pump and bleed hydraulic brakes, it is better to contact a car service.

Structurally, the QUICK BRAKE brand Breather Screw/Valve, brake caliper is located in the upper part of the caliper chamber filled with brake fluid. When pumping with a pedal, the air in the system, in search of an outlet, rises to the top of the chamber. The mechanic unscrews the screw a little, allowing the air from the line to suffer a little. The procedure is carried out until the liquid completely displaces the gas.
