Brake Services in Calgary

No matter your level of driving experience, it is probably fair to say that every Calgary driver is aware of the importance of a functioning set of brakes. Without your brakes working to their optimal level, your heavy-duty diesel truck shouldn’t be on the road. One of the most common concerns that our mechanics at CG Truck and Equipment Repair Inc hear from Calgary drivers is that they did not know their brakes were in such bad shape. The reason for this is simple; your brakes are one of the strongest parts of your truck. Because of this they will continue to operate even when they are worn down. However, if not diagnosed in time then a small problem could turn into something far more dangerous. Don’t take that risk. Make sure you and others on the road in Calgary are protected.

Complete Brake Service Repair Team

At CG Truck and Equipment Repair Inc we are highly aware of the fact that there are many parts that make your brake system work well. However, we also realize that it only takes one of these many pieces of equipment to fail for your whole braking system to be compromised. It is for this reason that our mechanics and brake technicians have the skill, experience, and equipment to repair, and if necessary, replace all the brake-related parts. While there are many unique parts that go into making the optimal braking system, here are two that you need to pay special attention to:

1. Brake Calipers

The brake calipers in your truck are a key part of the functioning disc brake system. The importance of the caliper is tied to the fact that once you press on the brake pedal, the brake fluid flows from the mechanical cylinder to the brake calipers. From there, the brake fluid applies pressure on the piston inside the calipers. This leads to a friction between the brake pads and the rotors which ultimately results in the truck reducing in speed and stopping.

Any damage to the brake calipers can affect this entire process, leaving your entire braking system compromised. If you notice any problem when pressing the brake pedal then you need to contact CG Truck and Equipment Repair Inc right away.

2. Brake Rotors

It is always surprising to us when Calgary truck drivers are surprised at the importance of brake rotors. These rotors or discs are a crucial part of your heavy-duty diesel truck’s overall braking system and need to be properly maintained. The rotors in your truck are responsible for stopping your wheel from spinning. In reality, brake rotors and pads are extremely interlinked, and a fault to one will affect the other greatly.
