Why Does a Car Make Noise When Braking?
1 Answers
Car brakes may produce noise due to uneven wear during normal use or the presence of foreign objects between the brake disc and brake pads. In such cases, it is necessary to promptly inspect the vehicle to ensure driving safety. The materials used for brake pads include: 1. Asbestos, cellulose, sintered glass; 2. Carbon fiber friction materials; 3. Powder metallurgy friction materials; 4. Semi-metallic friction materials. The function of brakes is to reduce speed or bring the vehicle to a stop. Their working principle involves converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy through friction between the brake pads and brake drum, as well as between the tires and the ground, thereby slowing down or stopping the vehicle.
