Sealing Ring Foot Brake, Front And Rear
Braking
The sealing ring (10) is tensioned by means of the piston being pressed against the brake disc.
Resting position
The tension in the sealing ring (10), which was previously generated by applying the brakes, causes the piston to be pushed back to the resting position. When the brake pads wear, the rubber seal cannot follow, instead the piston slides through the sealing ring until the brake pads come into contact with the brake disc. This produces a self-adjustment between brake disc and brake pad.
