Automotive brake maintenance refers to the regular inspection and upkeep of the braking system. Brake system maintenance can be performed in the following aspects: 1. High-temperature protection for brake pads: Prevents corrosion of the braking system, avoids brake pads from seizing due to high temperatures, eliminates brake squeal, and maintains good lubrication durability. Products containing ceramic components that can withstand temperatures above 1400°C are required. Therefore, it is essential to regularly check the thickness of the brake pads or shoes. Replace them immediately when their thickness approaches or falls below the manufacturer's specified minimum thickness. 2. Brake caliper lubrication maintenance: Lubricates the moving shafts and rubber cups of the brake calipers, keeps the caliper bushings soft, and extends the caliper's service life. Fully synthetic brake caliper lubricant is required. 3. Brake disc cleaning: Quickly cleans oil stains, dirt, and friction dust from brake discs, drums, and any components, ensuring good heat dissipation of the brake discs; eliminates harsh braking noises and promotes even braking. 4. Brake fluid replacement: Brake fluid has water-absorbing properties. If not replaced for a long time, it can corrode the braking system, posing a hazard to driving. It is generally recommended that owners replace the brake fluid every 20,000 kilometers, mainly to ensure the cleanliness of the brake fluid. 5. Anti-rust lubrication for tire screws, brake discs, and wheel contact surfaces: Prevents corrosion, avoids screws and surfaces from seizing due to heat, and facilitates disassembly. Products containing aluminum components that can withstand temperatures above 1100°C are required to ensure contact area with the brake pads and improve braking force.
