Abstract:
A brake system that includes a brake caliper comprising an inboard side and an outboard side, the inboard side of the brake caliper includes one or more brake pistons and the outboard side of the brake caliper comprises one or more brake pistons, and a brake pad comprising a first pad section and a second pad section. During a service brake apply, both of the first pad section and the second pad section are moved against a braking surface to create a clamping force. During a parking brake apply, only one of the first pad section and the second pad section is moved against the braking surface to create a clamping force. The first pad section comprises a friction material having a coefficient of friction that is different than a coefficient of friction of the second pad section.
