What does repairing brake pads mean?
1 Answers
Repairing brake pads refers to the need for maintenance when a vehicle's brake pads are worn out, to ensure the proper operation of the vehicle. Below is relevant information about automotive brake pads: 1. Performance: Automotive brake pads, also known as brake linings, are friction materials fixed to the brake drum or brake disc that rotates with the wheel. The friction linings and blocks bear external pressure to generate friction, thereby achieving the purpose of decelerating the vehicle. 2. Structure: Automotive brake pads are generally composed of a steel plate, an adhesive heat insulation layer, and a friction block. The steel plate is coated to prevent rust, and the coating process is monitored using an SMT-4 furnace temperature tracker to ensure the temperature distribution during coating meets quality standards. 3. Braking Principle: The working principle of automotive brake pads mainly relies 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 heat energy through friction, bringing the vehicle to a stop.
