Why does the Hyundai Elantra's brake pads get hot?
1 Answers
Modern Hyundai Elantra brake pads heat up due to frequent braking, which causes the temperature of the brake discs and pads to rise. The principle of braking is to convert mechanical energy into thermal energy. Typically, whether the brake warning light on the dashboard is illuminated is used as a criterion for replacing the brake pads. Relevant information about brake pads is as follows: 1. Brake pads are also called brake linings. In a car's braking system, brake pads are the most critical safety components, and all braking performance is decisively influenced by the brake pads. 2. Brake pads (brake-lining) 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 uses an SMT-4 oven temperature tracker to monitor the temperature distribution during the coating process to ensure quality.
