This year, Brake Engineering has also produced its eight millionth remanufactured caliper, a testament to the labor-intensive, but also extremely thorough core competencies of the brand used to produce calipers, five days a week.
The latest extension represents Brake Engineering’s “Original Aftermarket” promise to provide customers with traceable braking solutions based on the company’s longstanding aftermarket experience and expertise.
Each caliper is only released into the market once it passes a multi-stage high- and low-pressure test, as used at original equipment level.
All of the new units have been remanufactured in line with stringent Brake Engineering procedures whereby an acceptable core is identified, and all worn parts are replaced with 100-percent new components including pistons, seals and sliders.
