What Causes the Collision Sound Between Brake Pads and Calipers?
1 Answers
The reasons for the collision sound between brake pads and calipers are: 1. Loose bolts in the chassis and suspension; 2. The caliper's return pin has not retracted; 3. The brake cylinder's piston has not retracted. Automotive brake pads, also known as brake linings, refer to the friction materials fixed on the rotating brake drums or discs of the wheels. The friction linings and blocks bear external pressure to generate friction, thereby achieving the purpose of vehicle deceleration. Methods to maintain brake pads include: 1. Developing good driving habits; 2. Avoiding sudden braking; 3. Regularly inspecting brake pads and discs; 4. Checking the thickness of the friction linings; 5. Having a professional inspect the brake shoes; 6. Using original manufacturer-provided brake pads for replacements.
