They are strip-able but the usual reason for sticking is the rod that connects the handbrake linkage goes through a seal and a bush. When the seal wears it allows water in and the steel rod rusts and jams in the bush. These ATE calipers have been used by many manufacturers for years and I know Ford used to list a repair kit (which included the seal and bush) but Volvo never have.
Most bite the bullet and fit a new or recon caliper unless the previous suggestions worked.
