Technical characteristics of the brake system (Sierra)

            0

The service brake system is hydraulically actuated. The system uses a vacuum brake booster. The brake system consists of two circuits. The front brakes are disc brakes, and the rear brakes are drum brakes. The handbrake is mechanically actuated and actuates the rear brakes.

Front brakes



The front brakes are disc brakes. They use full discs and single-piston floating calipers.

Disc thickness:
- nominal
12.65 mm
- minimum acceptable
11.3 mm
Maximum disc runout

54.0 mm
Brake pad type
Girling D 600 FF
Brake pad sizes
38 x 111 mm
Thickness of overlays (without base plate):
- nominal
12.5 mm
- minimum acceptable
about 1.5 mm

Rear brakes



The rear brakes are drum brakes and are equipped with an automatic brake shoe clearance adjustment mechanism.

Master brake cylinder



In the cavity of the main cylinder there are two pistons located in series, each of which controls its own circuit.



Vacuum brake booster



The brake booster operates on the master cylinder and contains a single diaphragm.

Pressure regulator



The pressure regulator is installed on the rear brake line and limits the braking force of the rear wheels.
