- The caliper pin allows the caliper to slide freely during braking.
- Responsible for guiding the proper angle for how the brake pad meets the rotor.
- Helps to slow the car's wheels by creating friction with the brake rotors.
A pin used with a float style caliper, which mounts the caliper to a caliper bracket through a caliper guide pin bolt.
The brake caliper guide pins are two round metal pins on each brake caliper where the brake piston assembly sits. They’re called guide pins because they’re responsible for guiding the proper angle for how the brake pad meets the disc.
If the caliper is not free to move, the culprit might be bent or binding guide pins. Even if guide pins are not damaged, swollen or hardened guide seals or lack of lubrication may cause the caliper to bind resulting in uneven pad wear.
