What are the types of automotive brakes?
1 Answers
Automotive brakes include: 1. Disc brakes; 2. Drum brakes; 3. Ceramic brakes. Automotive brakes are used for stopping the vehicle. During driving, service brakes are employed to facilitate deceleration and stopping while moving forward. When the vehicle is stationary, the brake used is called the parking brake, also known as the handbrake, primarily to prevent the car from rolling forward or backward. Methods of operating automotive brakes: 1. Press the brake pedal downward; 2. Slightly pull the parking brake lever upward; 3. Press the button on the end of the handle with your thumb, then lower the parking brake lever back to its original position to complete the operation.
