This issue of Qiwei Automotive Accessories will introduce you to relevant knowledge about the braking system of vehicles, hoping to be helpful to you. If you are interested, let's read on together!

The working principle of braking is friction, which uses the friction between the brake pads and brake discs, as well as the friction between the tires and the ground, to convert the kinetic energy of the vehicle's movement into the heat energy after friction, and stop the vehicle.

When a car is driving on the road, it is inevitable to brake. The brake pads of a car are generally composed of a steel back, a bonded insulation layer, and friction materials. The friction block is composed of friction materials and adhesives, which are compressed onto the brake disc or drum during braking to generate friction, thereby achieving the goal of vehicle deceleration and braking. Due to friction, the friction blocks will gradually wear out, and generally speaking, brake pads with lower costs will wear out faster. After using the friction material, the brake pads should be replaced in a timely manner, otherwise the steel back will come into direct contact with the brake disc, leading to loss of braking effect and damage to the brake disc. The following car brake pad manufacturers will take you to understand the brake system of the car.

Do you understand the braking system of the vehicle?

The working principle of braking is friction, which uses the friction between the brake pads and brake discs, as well as the friction between the tires and the ground, to convert the kinetic energy of the vehicle's movement into the heat energy after friction, and stop the vehicle. A good and efficient braking system must be able to provide stable, sufficient, and controllable braking force, and have good hydraulic transmission and heat dissipation capabilities to ensure that the force applied by the driver from the brake pedal can be fully and effectively transmitted to the master cylinder and various slave cylinders, and to avoid hydraulic failure and brake recession caused by high heat. The braking systems on cars are divided into two categories: disc and drum brakes, but apart from cost advantages, drum brakes are far less efficient than disc brakes.
