Disk brakes
Together with everyone a wheel in an air stream the steel disk freely rotates. So-called supports sedloobrazno cover disks. When pressing a brake pedal pistons press brake slips to disks – there is a braking.
Disk brakes are constantly cooled with a counter flow of air. To the six-cylinder engine of 2,8 l there is an additional cooling of forward disk brakes: on perimeter of a brake disk big dredging which reject air settle down and thus strengthen cooling.
Disk brakes during wet weather
At an incessant rain barefaced brake disks intensively pour down therefore the brake effect is shown with delay in a fraction of a second. Moisture between brake disks and slips has to evaporate in the beginning. In the winter this phenomenon arises with a special force as the salt layer which settled on brake disks and slips when braking has to be erased in the beginning.
