As long as the brake pads are quiet, can they stop the car? Is it so mysterious? Next, the brake pad manufacturer will introduce you to the importance of the quality of the brake pads. I hope it will help you!


As mentioned above, it is very simple to solve the noise alone. But the main function of brake pads is not noise, but safety. Now the market does pay too much attention to noise and neglect the main functions of brake pads. As for everyone’s saying that it’s enough to stop the car? That’s right, just stop the car, but you may not have thought that you can stop the car on flat roads, and can stop the car at normal speed, but can you stop the car in emergency braking situations? Can you stop the car under the high temperature of continuous braking on Panshan Road? Can you guarantee the braking distance at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour on a rainy day? The brake pads of the original car must ensure the stability of the braking ability when we need safety most. I believe that many car owners who think that they can stop the car have never thought of this.


What is the short life of brake pads? Why do inferior products have a long braking distance under emergency braking conditions?




Answer: Like all objects, the strength of the intermolecular link between the material and the organization decreases at high temperatures. The principle of brake braking is to convert kinetic energy into heat energy by friction to achieve braking (energy balance theory). Therefore, a large amount of heat generated by the friction between the brake pads and the disc will accumulate on the surface of the brake pad friction material, and the original car brakes In order to achieve sufficient strength of the brake pads under such high temperature conditions, materials such as high-temperature resistant resin, high-purity graphite, and high-purity barium sulfate must be selected, and these materials are just like you choose only the same size from a car of carbon Like coal, the cost will rise substantially.


And inferior brake pads, they will not use such high-end materials, so they cannot guarantee the stability at high temperatures, and as the speed increases, its heat is more, the temperature is higher, and the link strength is lower, thereby reducing the production. Mobility, manifested as an extended braking distance. Therefore, the brake pads that you find to be able to drive at a speed of 20 to 60 kilometers per hour in the city do not mean that you have the same stable braking distance performance at high speeds. When the link strength of the molecular chain decreases at high temperatures, its wear speeds up. This is why the service life of general brand brake pads is very short in mountainous areas or under frequent sudden braking conditions. The high-load and high-frequency braking of construction machinery vehicles will aggravate this phenomenon!
