Can I replace the brake pads myself?

You can replace the brake pads yourself. Here is an introduction about brake pads: 1. Introduction: Brake pads are also called brake linings. 2. Function: In the car's braking system, brake pads are the most critical safety components. The quality of all braking effects is determined by the brake pads, so good brake pads are the guardian of people and cars. 3. Material: Brake pads (brake-lining) are generally composed of steel plates, adhesive heat insulation layers, and friction blocks. The steel plates are coated to prevent rust, and the coating process uses an SMT-4 furnace temperature tracker to detect the temperature distribution during the coating process to ensure quality. The heat insulation layer is made of non-heat-conducting materials to provide insulation. 4. Principle: The friction block is composed of friction materials and adhesives. When braking, it is squeezed against the brake disc or brake drum to generate friction, thereby achieving the purpose of vehicle deceleration and braking. Due to friction, the friction block will gradually wear out. Generally speaking, the lower the cost of the brake pads, the faster they wear out.
