How to see the degree of wear of the brake pads
Jun 30, 2021
Product thickness: Its thickness has a great influence on the braking effect. The thickness of new products is generally around 1.5cm. When it wears to a thickness of about 0.3 cm, the car will mainly pay attention! Remind everyone, don’t wait until it’s only 0.3 cm to replace it. You can consider replacing it when it’s worn to only 0.5 cm.
If it is an old car, there are actually alarms, but the form is different. Under normal circumstances, an alarm iron plate is installed. When the friction material is almost worn, the brake disc will not be worn, but the alarm iron plate will be worn. So at this time, the vehicle will make a "chirp" between the harsh metals, which is a signal for replacement. In addition to the technology that can help you determine when to replace the brake pads, we can also check whether the brake pads need to be replaced.
Different brands of products have different thicknesses when changing. However, when it is common, the thickness to be replaced is usually clearly displayed. According to the editor, as long as it exceeds the critical line by about 2 mm, it can be replaced. However, seeing that many people who drive are still using them, so the savings will cost lives. Experts suggest that the replacement of brake pads should be determined according to the driver's driving environment and driving habits. If you find that the brake pads are thinning through observation, find a professional technician to judge. They will use sophisticated measuring instruments to decide whether to replace them, because the human eye cannot accurately measure the instruments.
And in the actual driving process, something we can't think of will appear in this way. Many car owners are lucky. Even if the brakes fail, it doesn't matter. It's ok. I drove very steadily. Even if you drive safely, you cannot guarantee that others will drive and walk as well as you. Therefore, the editor of China Mining reminds you that once you find that your car's brakes fail, you must replace the brake pads in time, and perhaps make relevant adjustments to make the brake function achieve good results.
