The friction during opening increases as the opening angle becomes larger. In case of severe overload, the brake can slip to reduce the load on the arch and hinge.<\/p>\n<h2>The difference between the 252 and 257 mm brake chamber<\/h2>\n<p>A difference of five millimeters can mean that it is a completely different brake family.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>ASSA Fix 160\/2:<\/strong> 252 mm brake caliper and 20 mm wide rectangular profile<\/li>\n<li><strong>ASSA 750\/2 or 760\/2:<\/strong> 257 mm brake caliper and 16 mm wide T-shaped Euronot profile<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Therefore, do not choose the model whose length is closest.

After installation, check that the handle activates the brake and that the door or window moves freely when the handle is in the open position.<\/p>\n<p>Always follow the ASSA installation instructions.
