Should you replace your brake pads?


The braking function of the brake pads is to generate friction between the brake pads, forcing the pair to brake. As a mobile device and vehicle component, the braking component is one of the important safety components for mobile devices and vehicles.
1、 Formula system
As a braking material for brake pads, it is actually a composite material formed by the polymerization of various minerals and mineral fibers. Different types of vehicles and geographical differences have different requirements for brake material products.
The friction coefficient is the Z basic parameter of the braking material, which determines the braking efficiency of the brake pad. The country strictly requires production enterprises to indicate the friction coefficient of brake pads on the outer packaging of their products. If the coefficient of friction is too high, it will produce a significant impact. There will be vibration during braking. If the friction coefficient is too low and the braking distance is too long, it can cause traffic accidents. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly control the fluctuation of friction coefficient.
2、 Service life and characteristics
Xu Daosi is very concerned about how many kilometers can be used for braking. But this is a very unscientific calculation. Because braking is closely related to road conditions and driving habits (poor road conditions). The losses vary greatly between mountainous and plain areas, with short driving ages and experienced drivers using the brakes differently.
The service life of ceramic brake pads in plain areas can reach 600000 to 90000 kilometers, and the service life of brake discs (wheels) can be extended by 1.5 to 2 times. The Sliding friction mode of ceramic modified brake pads has changed the traditional shear friction mode. Sliding friction will not scratch the brake disc (wheel hub), and will produce an uninterrupted thin carbon film during use. The surface of the rotary table (wheel hub) is smooth as a mirror, without friction grooves, making it smoother and increasing the friction surface, making friction more stable and braking performance stronger. However, traditional brake pads may experience friction grooves and sliding when braking in water. The wear resistance and braking effect of brake materials are at the cost of reducing the lifespan of brake pads (wheels).
3、 Noise
In terms of comfort indicators, Z is concerned about the noise of the brake pads. The noise is caused by the braking process. Ceramic modified brake pads completely solve the noise problem in the production process and material formulation, and ceramic brake pads are completely noise free.
4、 Precautions during use
A. Ceramic brake pads have porous properties, high braking force, light foot feel, flexibility, and are not afraid of water.
b. The surface of ceramic brake pads is fragile and wear-resistant, producing ceramic products.
Ceramic brake plates make the friction surface of the double disc (wheel hub) smooth, bright, with a large contact area and strong braking power.
The friction coefficient of ceramic brake pads is stable, with small fluctuations, and the wheels remain stationary during braking, extending the service life of the tires.
