  1. Are there different types of brake calipers? There are different types of brake calipers. The most frequently used one is a floating caliper. When you press down the brake pedal, the brake fluid from the cars brake master cylinderproduces hydraulic pressure through the brake pipes on the pistons in the brake caliper. A brake pipe is usually made of steel and is nonflexible. As the pipe is made from steel, this can corrode over time. The brake hoses then transfer the brake fluid to the brake calipers forcing them to close. This then clamps the brake pads to the rotating brake discs allowing your car to slow down or come to a complete stop.
