The
BRAKE PADS
of a car are a very important part of the car, and some people call
them 'brake pads'. It ensures our driving safety, and timely inspection
and updating of the brake pads are very important for our driving
safety. Statistics show that more than 70% of common traffic accidents
are caused by untimely braking. If there is a problem with the brakes,
the possibility of danger will be greatly increased.
Car Brake Pads
are usually replaced every 50,000 kilometers, so the brake shoes should
be checked every 5,000 kilometers. Not only should the remaining
thickness of the brake pads be checked, but also the wear state of the
brake shoes should be evaluated at the same time to see whether the
degree of damage on both sides is the same. Once an abnormal situation
is found, it must be dealt with immediately.

The
brake shoes are composed of two parts: iron lining and friction
material. Never wait until the friction material is worn out before
being forced to replace the brake shoes. The thickness of the new pad is
14 mm, and the maximum thickness of the replacement is 7 mm, including
more than 3 mm of iron lining thickness and nearly 4 mm of friction
material thickness. Some vehicles have brake shoe alarm function. Once
the wear limit of the brake shoe is reached, the instrument will remind
you to replace the brake shoe through an alarm. Once the brake shoe
reaches the limit of use, it must be replaced immediately. Even if it
can still be used, it will affect the safety of driving.
If
conditions permit, replace the spare brake pads provided by the
original factory, so that the braking effect between the brake pad and
the brake disc can be best and the wear can be minimized.
After
the brake shoe is replaced, remember to step on the brake a few times
to try to eliminate the gap between the shoe and the brake disc to
prevent accidents.
After the brake shoe is
replaced, it needs to be run-in for 200 kilometers to achieve the best
braking effect. Be careful when driving with the newly replaced shoe.
