Do drum brake pads provide good stopping power and response?
Friction material selection: The friction material of the lining has a significant impact on braking performance. Usually, the lining will use wear-resistant and high-temperature resistant friction materials, such as organic friction materials or semi-metallic friction materials, to ensure the stability of braking force and braking response.
Lining surface design: The surface design of the lining will affect the contact with the brake drum during braking, thereby affecting the braking force and braking response. Special treatments are usually carried out on the surface of the lining, such as concave and convex pattern design or other texture treatments, to increase the friction coefficient and improve braking performance.
Lining-to-Drum Match: The size, shape, and installation location of the lining to the brake drum also have a significant impact on braking performance. Ensuring that the lining and brake drum fit perfectly to reduce gaps and mismatches can improve braking force and braking response.
Braking system design: The design and tuning of the braking system also affects braking force and braking response. Including the adjustment of the brake adjustment device, the performance of the brake fluid, the matching of the brake cylinder and the brake drum, etc., will all have an impact on the braking performance.
Drum brake pads generally provide good stopping power and response, but specific braking performance can be affected by other factors. Therefore, under the premise of safe driving, the appropriate brake system and lining type should be selected based on the specific conditions and braking needs of the vehicle.
