Sliding calipers were invented in China almost 2, 000 years ago.
2.
The CB750 had a hydraulically operated single piston sliding caliper with a solid front disc.
3.
The front brakes are single-piston sliding caliper with a one-piece ventilated rotor.
4.
Brakes on non-Sport models are front ventilated discs and rear ventilated discs with sliding calipers.
5.
The brakes were also upgraded to vented rotors on the front and rear with an improved slide caliper design having larger diameter slides.
6.
Stopping power included uprated front disc brakes, now radially ventilated, sized at in diameter by thick, with ATE single-piston sliding calipers.
7.
This accommodated the growing share of cars equipped with front disc brakes, which were updated to a new simpler and less costly single piston sliding caliper design from the earlier 4-piston fixed caliper type.
8.
A floating caliper ( also called a " sliding caliper " ) moves with respect to the disc, along a line parallel to the axis of rotation of the disc; a piston on one side of the disc pushes the inner brake pad until it makes contact with the braking surface, then pulls the caliper body with the outer brake pad so pressure is applied to both sides of the disc.

In ancient times, the scientific accomplishments of China included Grand Canal, the magnetic compass, south-pointing chariots, odometers, fishing reels, the Su Song water-driven astronomical clock tower, chain pumps, escapements, sliding calipers, trip hammers, kites, sunglasses, the toothbrush, inoculation, etc . Paper, printing, the compass, and gunpowder are celebrated in Chinese culture as the Four Great Inventions.
