CONTACT ELEMENT - BRAKE
The contact element is a crucial component in the braking system of a vehicle. It serves as the point of connection between the brake pedal and the hydraulic system, transmitting the force applied by the driver to the brake calipers.
This element typically consists of a cylindrical housing with a piston inside. When the brake pedal is pressed, the piston moves forward, creating pressure in the hydraulic fluid. This pressure is then transmitted through brake lines to the calipers, which clamp down on the brake rotors, slowing or stopping the vehicle.
