ABSTRACT:
A composite cast caliper in which the body of the caliper is cast with an additional component embedded therein. The embedded or intra-cast component can be either a reinforcing structure to strengthen and prevent deflection of the caliper body or it can be a tube providing a coolant passage within the caliper. The coolant passage tube is connected to a source of coolant fluid for circulation through the caliper to remove heat therefrom. The embedded component is positioned within the casting mold by the use of a plurality of locating wires.
