Working of Disc Brake:-

 Working of Disc Brake:

 Disc brakes are a type of hydraulic brake commonly used in cars, motorcycles, and bicycles. These brakes consist of a metal rotor attached to the wheel hub and a brake caliper that contains one or more brake pads. When the brake pedal is pressed, hydraulic fluid is forced into the caliper, causing the brake pads to press against the rotor, which slows down or stops the rotation. 

The working of disc brakes can be summarized in the following steps: 

1. The brake pedal is pressed, which activates the brake master cylinder. 

2. The master cylinder sends hydraulic fluid to the brake caliper. 

3. The brake caliper contains one or more brake pads that press against the metal rotor.

 4. Friction between the brake pads and the rotor slows down or stops the rotation. 

5. Some disc brakes also have a rotor with slots or holes to improve heat dissipation and reduce brake fade.
