Is Brake Pad Dust Good or Bad?
1 Answers
Brake pads will always produce dust, as they are made from compressed powder and rubber under heat. The difference lies only in the rate at which dust is produced. Below is relevant information about brake pads: Brake Pads: Also known as brake linings. In a car's braking system, brake pads are the most critical safety component, playing a decisive role in the effectiveness of braking. Therefore, high-quality brake pads act as protectors for both the driver and the vehicle. Composition: Brake pads generally consist of a steel plate, an adhesive heat-insulating layer, and a friction block. The steel plate is coated to prevent rust, with the coating process monitored by an SMT-4 furnace temperature tracker to ensure temperature distribution and quality. Working Principle: The braking principle is primarily based on friction. By utilizing the friction between the brake pads and the brake disc (or drum), as well as between the tires and the ground, the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle is converted into thermal energy through friction, bringing the car to a stop.
