What brand are the original brake pads for Honda CR-V?
1 Answers
The original brake pads for Honda CR-V are provided by Honda itself, as they are OEM parts. Below are the requirements that the brake pads must meet: 1. Friction Coefficient: It is crucial for the brake pads to maintain a stable friction coefficient under various conditions, including cold, wet, high temperatures, alternating hot and cold, and extreme heat. 2. Service Life: The goal is to extend the service life as much as possible, reducing the frequency of replacements. 3. Comfort: Comfort should feel effortless and intuitive. Achieving this through formulation adjustments is challenging—the braking coefficient cannot be too high or too low. If the friction coefficient is too high, the braking performance is strong, but the car may dip, shake, or produce noise. If it's too low, it becomes dangerous, as the car may not stop when expected. 4. Thermal Expansion: Continuous or emergency braking can generate high temperatures. According to the principle of thermal expansion, the brake pads will expand. However, this expansion must remain within a very small range. Excessive expansion can reduce the gap between the pad and the rotor, causing the pads to remain in contact with the rotor during normal driving. This can lead to increased oil temperature in the brake cylinder, oil leakage, and ultimately, brake failure.
