What are the advantages of drum brake pad products?

Drum brake pads, general drum brakes are composed of a rotating part, a fixed part, an actuating part and a positioning adjustment device. It is composed of brake base plate, brake cylinder, brake shoe and other related connecting rods, springs, pins, and brake drums. Only commonly used in the rear wheel.

It has the function of automatic braking, so that the brake system can use lower oil pressure, or use a brake drum with a much smaller diameter than the brake disc. Easy installation of the hand brake mechanism. Some models with disc brakes on the rear wheels will install a drum brake hand brake mechanism in the center of the brake disc. The processing and composition of the parts are relatively simple, and the manufacturing cost is relatively low.

Drum brake pads have a cast iron piece with a shape similar to a tambourine, called a brake drum, which is fixed with the tire and rotates at the same speed. Disc brakes have the advantages of better reactivity and stability, better heat dissipation, and easy replacement. Drum brakes have lower cost and higher relative braking force, and are more often used on the rear wheels of small cars. But its wear rate is higher, so at the same time the overall cost is higher.

Drum brake pads rely on brake pads to support the brake drum to achieve braking. The efficiency is low and the braking performance is average. Disc brakes rely on brake pads to clamp the brake disc to achieve braking. It is thought that both sides are stressed, the braking efficiency is high, and the braking performance is quite good. Good cars are equipped with front and rear disc brakes, and some low-end cars will only be equipped with drum brakes on non-driving wheels.
