OE NO. 04495-42010 / K2333 Auto Brake Pads Low Noise Level And Wide Temperature Range

Product Description:

The primary function of brake pads is to provide the necessary friction and stopping power to slow down and stop a moving vehicle. When you press the brake pedal, hydraulic pressure is applied to the brake calipers, which squeeze the brake pads against the brake discs (or drums) attached to the wheels.

Here are the key functions of brake pads in a vehicle's braking system:

• Friction Generation: Brake pads are made of friction materials, such as composite compounds containing heat-resistant resins, fillers, and metal fibers. When the brake pedal is pressed, the brake pads create friction against the rotating brake discs (or drums). This friction converts the vehicle's kinetic energy into heat energy, which slows down and eventually stops the vehicle.
• Heat Dissipation: As mentioned earlier, the friction generated between the brake pads and the brake discs or drums produces a significant amount of heat. Brake pads are designed to handle high temperatures and efficiently dissipate this heat. Proper heat dissipation prevents brake fade and ensures consistent braking performance.
• Wear Resistance: Brake pads are designed to withstand constant friction and wear. They have a specific thickness of friction material that gradually wears down over time. This sacrificial wear of the brake pads helps protect other more expensive components, such as the brake discs or drums. By regularly replacing worn brake pads, you can extend the life of these critical components.
• Noise and Vibration Damping: Brake pads also play a role in minimizing noise, vibrations, and harshness (NVH) during braking. They are designed with features to reduce brake squeal and dampen vibrations that may occur when the brake pads come into contact with the rotating discs or drums. This ensures a smooth and quiet braking experience for the driver and passengers.
• Compatibility with Brake System: Brake pads are engineered to be compatible with the specific braking system of a vehicle. They are designed to fit precisely within the brake calipers and make proper contact with the brake discs or drums. This ensures efficient transfer of braking force and optimal performance.

Overall, brake pads are critical components that provide the necessary friction and wear resistance for safe and effective braking. They contribute to the overall performance and reliability of a vehicle's braking system, ensuring the driver has control over the vehicle's speed and stopping distance.

Features:

If you hear high-pitched squeaking or squealing sounds when you apply the brakes, it is often a sign that the brake pads have worn down significantly. Many brake pads include wear indicators, which are small metal tabs that make contact with the brake disc when the pads are worn out. This contact produces the squealing noise as a warning that the brake pads need replacement.

When you hear a grinding or metal-on-metal noise when you brake, it generally means the brake pads have been completely worn down, and the metal backing plate is making direct contact with the brake disc or drum. This can cause damage to the braking system components and reduce braking efficiency, thus requiring immediate replacement.

When the friction material on the brake pads wears down, it reduces the braking effectiveness and requires more force on the brake pedal to slow down or stop the vehicle. This is indication of worn brake pads and their replacement is needed.

Unevenly worn or warped brake pads can also cause vibrations or pulsations through the brake pedal when you apply the brakes. Such cases can occur when the brake pads have worn down unevenly or when excessive heat causes the brake discs or drums to warp. In such cases, replacing both the brake pads and resurfacing or replacing the discs or drums may be necessary.

Many modern vehicles have a dashboard warning light specifically for the braking system. If the brake pad wear sensor detects that the brake pads have worn down to a certain level, it will trigger the warning light to alert you to the need for replacement. Thus it is important to check your vehicle’s manual to understand the specific warning indicators used in your car.

Applications:

Brake pads are essential in a variety of vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, and even some industrial machinery. Their purpose lies in the braking system, and they are located in various places, depending on the type of vehicle:

1. Automotive Disc Brakes: Most modern vehicles have disc brakes, that are located around the brake discs. When the brakes are pressed, the brake pads put pressure on the spinning discs to reduce speed.

2. Drum Brakes: Older vehicles, motorcycles, and bicycles use drum brakes on either the front or rear wheels. The brake pads in these circumstances are called brake shoes and are inside the brake drums, pressing against them when expanded to create the right amount of friction for braking.

3. Racing and Performance Applications: In high-performance and racing applications, brake pads are specifically crafted to stand up against high temperatures. They are typically made of advanced materials, such as ceramic or carbon fiber, which promote exceptional heat dissipation and braking capabilities.

4. Heavy-Duty and Industrial Equipment: Various heavy-duty and industrial machinery, such as construction equipment, mining vehicles, and industrial brakes for heavy machinery, use brake pads for reliable braking performance. They must be able to withstand heavy loads in challenging environments.

It is significant to note that the ideal brake pads for a vehicle are those that are compatible with its braking system and approved by the manufacturer or an experienced mechanic. Different vehicles and braking systems require brake pads with particular properties, like size, material composition, and heat resistance, to guarantee optimal performance and safety.
