How is the quality of Marton brake pads?
2 Answers
Marton brake pads are of decent quality. Marton brake pads are a self-owned brand of Santou Liubi, using imported ceramic formulas with strong braking performance, high-temperature resistance, and no damage to the disc. Below is some information about brake pads: Introduction: Brake pads are composed of friction material layers, insulation layers, adhesive layers, backplates, etc. 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. Precautions: Emergency braking causes significant damage to brake pads, so it is advisable to brake gently during normal driving or use intermittent braking to minimize wear on the brake pads.
I've used Marton brake pads several times. For daily city commuting, they provide sufficient braking force with timely response, keeping the stopping distance within a reasonable range without any accidents. However, during long highway drives, I noticed the brakes feel a bit soft, requiring earlier and slightly harder pedal application. Occasionally, there's some squeaking noise, but it's not severe enough to affect driving. The cleanliness is good with minimal brake dust, keeping the rims clean. Overall durability is moderate, typically requiring inspection and replacement every 2-3 years or 30,000-40,000 km. The price is quite affordable, nearly half the cost of premium brands I've used before, making them a suitable choice for budget-conscious owners for daily driving. It's recommended to perform regular brake system maintenance after installation to ensure safe driving.
