English term or phrase: caliper bracket
within the caliper division of an auto parts supplier:

"Along the lines of availability, a customer challenged us to develop a specific program configuration that our competitors offered, but we did not. XXX needed to launch the Friction Choice with **Bracket** program in as little as two months. The Caliper Team worked together and met the customer’s need by pulling over 1200 SKUs, creating new Bill of Materials, sourcing, and tooling-up new **brackets** all within a limited time frame. The result was a successful launch."

neutral  Johannes Gleim: caliper bracket = support d'étrier. But caliper bracket was not mentioned in the text. Both word are present, but separated from each other.

étrier de frein


Explanation:
unj peu deviné:

spring-operated caliper disc brake [tech.] = Federspeicher-Bremssattel-Scheibenbremse laut LEO

Bremssattel = étrier de frein

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 2 hrs (2006-04-06 21:48:40 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------

caliper = brake caliper = Bremssattel = étrier de frein
bracket = Halter, Halterung = support

Dans Revue technique automobile (Mercedes Classe C Diesel) je trouve: 1) Disque de frein, 2) Flasque, 3) Étrier, 4) Support d'étrier, 5. Plaquette ...

Dans le texte je trouve deux expressions: caliper (étrier) et bracket (support)
