Why Is The Mileage Of Brake Pads Used Different For Each Vehicle?
Some vehicles only travel 30000-40000 kilometers
The brake pads are worn to the limit
However, when driving more than 60000 kilometers, there are still plenty of brake pads
Why is the service life of brake pads so different?
In fact, there are many reasons that affect the service life of brake pads
Including driving habits, road conditions, formula of brake pads, etc
Among them, the influence of brake pad formula is the most direct
In friction materials of Semi-metallic Brake Pads
About 30% - 65% are made of metal, including copper, iron, etc
It is characterized by fast heat dissipation, high temperature resistance and low price
The disadvantage is that the noise when braking is relatively loud
At the same time, the metal material will have great wear on the brake disc
At present, the original supporting brake pads applied to medium and low-end models
This is naturally characterized by its lower price
Low metal brake pads are an improved version of semi metal
There is no difference in appearance
Metal composition contained in low metal formula
It is lower than the semi-metallic formula and has less damage to the brake disc
At the same time, it can ensure heat dissipation at high temperature
Stability of friction coefficient
High quality low metal formula is often used in medium and high-end models
Nao brake pads are asbestos free organic friction materials
It contains aramid fiber and a small amount of metal
The advantages of Nao brake pads are short running in period and low noise
The brake disc has less wear, less dust and long service life
In addition, at high temperature
The friction coefficient remains stable
Avoid melting due to material during long-time or high-speed braking
The braking force is attenuated, which greatly improves the safety
Different brake pad formulations are applicable to different models
Each has its own advantages. We can't simply comment on its advantages and disadvantages through the formula
Brake pad formula is one of the core competitiveness of each manufacturer
Even with the same formula, brake pads from different manufacturers
Performance and life performance will also vary
