Why does the drum brake still not stop after replacing the brake pads?
1 Answers
Reasons why the drum brake still does not stop after replacing the brake pads: It may be due to excessive brake clearance, which requires adjustment; or the brake drum may be severely worn and needs replacement. Below is some information about drum brakes: 1. Principle: The drum brake works by using stationary brake shoes inside the brake drum to create friction against the rotating brake drum, thereby reducing the wheel's rotation speed. 2. Advantages: Drum brakes have a lower manufacturing technology level and were the first to be used in braking systems, making them less expensive to produce compared to disc brakes. They are also easier to install. Some vehicles with rear disc brakes may have a drum brake handbrake mechanism installed in the center of the brake disc.
