IntroductionBrake drums are critical components in automotive braking systems, especially in heavy-duty and commercial vehicles. They are responsible for converting kinetic energy into thermal energy through friction, enabling vehicles to slow down or stop efficiently. The selection of the appropria
Brake Pad LifespanHow Long Do Brake Pads Last?The lifespan of brake pads can vary significantly based on several factors. On average, brake pads last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles. However, this range is influenced by driving habits, vehicle type, and road conditions.1. Driving Habits: Aggressive
Modern cars predominantly use disc brakes, which have become the standard for most vehicles due to their superior performance and efficiency. However, drum brakes are still found on some vehicles, particularly in more budget-friendly models or on the rear axles of certain cars. This article explores
Brake discs are an important part of the braking system. If the braking system is to always slow down the vehicle safely and comfortably - bringing it to a complete stop if necessary - the brake discs must combine with the brake pads to generate braking torque (braking force).
Brake components are one of the most important parts of any vehicle and should be inspected regularly. Worn brake components can result in reduced braking capacity and increased braking distances, directly leading to a greater risk of an accident.
