Do Small Cars Need Brake Adjustment?
1 Answers
If the driver feels the brake is too stiff, it can be adjusted. The brake can be adjusted by turning the nut under the pedal. The brake, also known as the braking system, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, and other transportation tools or machinery. Its working principle involves fixing a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and installing corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base, which generate braking torque under external force. Automobile Brake Pads: Automobile brake pads, also known as brake linings, are friction materials fixed on the rotating brake drum or disc of the wheel. The friction linings and blocks bear external pressure to create friction, thereby slowing down the vehicle. Brake System Classification: Brake systems are divided into two main categories: disc brakes and drum brakes. However, apart from cost advantages, drum brakes are far less efficient than disc brakes.
