When should the brake shoes be replaced?Look at the thickness

Many car owners do not know how often the brake shoes should be replaced. In fact, there is no fixed cycle for the replacement of the brake shoes, because the materials of the brake shoes are different, the use frequency of the car is different, and the driver's operating habits are different. These factors will lead to different replacement frequencies of the brake shoes.

When Should Brake Shoes Be Replaced

1.Most of the brake shoes need to be replaced every 10000 km. If the brake shoes are made of good materials, they can also be used for 90000 km. We can observe the thickness of the brake shoe to determine whether it needs to be replaced. The thickness of friction materials on disc brake shoes shall not be less than 2mm, and the thickness of friction materials on drum brake shoes shall not be less than 1.5mm.

2.Many cars are equipped with indicator lights when the friction material thickness is less than 3.5mm. The indicator light will be on, and the brake shoe should be replaced at this time.

Precautions for brake pad replacement

It should be noted that the left and right wheels should be replaced at the same time when replacing the brake shoes. Only replace the drum brake shoe once after replacing the disc friction plate twice. Replace 5 pairs of brake shoes, that is, replace one brake disc. And the brake shoes, brake discs and brake shoes of the same axle must be replaced at the same time.

Of course, before replacing the brake shoes, you need to know the brake shoe model corresponding to your car model. If you want to buy your brake shoe, or wholesale a large number of brake shoes, you can take a look at long-way,a professional brake shoe supplier in China
