Edge & MKX
Front
When mechanical force is applied by the driver to the brake pedal, the force is converted into hydraulic pressure by the master cylinder. The hydraulic force is directed to the front disc brake calipers and transferred to the brake pads. The brake pads are then forced against the brake friction surfaces by the brake caliper pistons. The friction of the brake pads on the brake disc causes the slowing of wheel rotation and the vehicle. Fig. .
Rear
When mechanical force is applied by the driver to the brake pedal, the force is converted into hydraulic pressure by the maste...
