Learn these tips to distinguish between genuine and fake brake pads
Brake pads are very important parts of cars. However, some lawless people take advantage of the loopholes to make fake brake pads in order to make huge profits. However, if we carefully observe them, we can still distinguish them.
The brake pad is generally composed of steel plate, adhesive thermal insulation layer and friction block. The friction block is composed of friction materials and adhesives. When braking, it is squeezed on the brake disc or brake drum to generate friction, so as to achieve the goal of vehicle deceleration and braking
Generally speaking, the friction block metal content of the fake brake pad is high, which will affect the heat resistance and braking effect of the brake pad. The brake disc will increase wear and shorten its service life.
The high-performance brake pads are made of carbon fiber and metal materials as raw materials. If the finished brake pads are rusted, it indicates that the iron content in the low-quality brake pad materials is too high.
