Does a brake pad thickness of 4mm require replacement?
1 Answers
If the brake pad thickness is less than 5 millimeters, it needs to be replaced promptly. Here is relevant information about brake pads: 1. Introduction: Brake pads consist of a friction material layer, heat insulation layer, adhesive layer, and backplate. The brake pads work by the brake caliper pushing the backplate to press the friction material against the brake disc for braking, making the quality of the friction material particularly important. 2. Precautions: Emergency braking causes significant damage to brake pads. Therefore, it is advisable to brake gently or use intermittent braking during normal driving to minimize wear on the brake pads.
