Brake pads are one of the most important parts of a vehicle. They play an important role in the braking system of your vehicle. It is compulsory to keep them in a good condition. If the maintenance of brake pads is compromised, then it can lead to life threatening accidents. Disc brake pads are used in most of the vehicles nowadays.  Working of the braking system The vehicle’s brakes consist of brake pads. The brake pads are fitted in the calliper sitting between the middle gap of the brake disc either on the front two wheels or mainly all four wheels.

Title: Everything You Need to Know About the Brake Pads and Their Working

Brake Pads and Their Working
  • Brake pads are one of the most important parts of
    a vehicle. They play an important role in the
    braking system of your vehicle. It is compulsory
    to keep them in a good condition. If the
    maintenance of brake pads is compromised, then it
    can lead to life threatening accidents. Disc
    brake pads are used in most of the vehicles
    nowadays. 
  • The vehicles brakes consist of brake pads. The
    brake pads are fitted in the calliper sitting
    between the middle gap of the brake disc either
    on the front two wheels or mainly all four
    wheels. They firmly press the discs and slows
    your car down by using friction and pressure.

Why the brakes are replaced regularly?
  • The lifespan of brake pads depends on the
    drivers way of driving and the quality of the
    pads as cheap car brake pads wear out faster. On
    motorways, less braking is required compared to
    urban areas as you have to stop for traffic,
    roundabouts, junctions, crossings, traffic
    lights, etc. Probably the most used system in a
    car is the braking system hence the brake parts
    are often replaced, like the brake pipe
    replacement, fluid replacement, etc.

Things that indicate you have faulty brake pads
  • You can often tell when your car requires new
    brake pads, here are some key points to look and
    listen out for
  • A squealing or scraping noise often means that
    something needs to be replaced. The squealing can
    be caused by worn out surfaces pushing or rubbing
    against the discs. Note that any sound made by
    the brakes indicates that a brake pad replacement
    is necessary.
  • If your car does not stop correctly when you
    apply pressure on the brake pedal, then you need
    to contact a professional immediately. If it
    feels like the car is jumpy or vibrating whilst
    you are applying the brake pedal, then it could
    mean that the brake discs are warped due to heat
    buildup. The brake discs assist the car to brake
    correctly and smoothly. Check the pads regularly
    to make sure that they are not worn out. If it is
    worn out, it can lead to a weaker system and
    cause the brakes to fail.
  • If your car pulls to one side when you apply the
    brakes it could mean that one side has more worn
    than the other. The car will pull to one side
    without the movement of the steering wheel. This
    is risky as your car should not be making turns
    unless you are the one enforcing it.
