Do you know all these problems with the brake pads?

Do you know all these questions about the brake pads on the website homepage?

Is adding ceramic fibers to the formula a ceramic formula?

No. Ceramic fiber is just one of the commonly used fibers in brake pads, as well as various types of metal fiber, mineral fiber, wood fiber, aramid fiber, etc. Their function is to connect various fillers, just like adding straw to rural mud walls.

2. What is the reason for the noise from the brake pads?

Noise mainly refers to frequency resonance. If the natural frequencies of two materials or components themselves are the same, resonance is prone to occur. It is easy to solve the noise of the brake pads separately, the service life is simple, and it is also easy to solve it separately without damaging the disc. There are many factors that can cause noise, and the entire brake assembly system is the cause of the noise. Improper selection of brake discs, severe disc wear, and other factors can all cause noise. In many cases, people have wronged the brake pads.

3. If the metal content is high, it will be hard. If it is hard, it will definitely make more noise?

Not right. Many of these statements are from repair garages and are not scientific. The main ingredients used in American cars are semi metallic formulas, which contain a lot of metal. Have you heard a lot of noise? Noise is not directly related to hardness or softness, and grinding discs and noise only indicate that the product formula is not mature and has nothing to do with the amount of metal.

In fact, metal materials in the formula mainly serve as connecting fillers and conducting heat. At the same time, their hardness is not significantly different from that of the disc, and they will not cause significant wear on the disc. What truly grinds the disc and increases the braking capacity is not the metals you see, but the abrasive fillers with harder hardness than the brake disc that you cannot see. They are actually diamond sand, which belongs to the same material as your common sandpaper and grinding wheel.

Why are there grooves on some plates that have been ground one after another? Are the brake pads very hard?

There are standards for the hardness of brake pads, which are basically between 35 and 70 Shore hardness. This hardness is not the main cause of your brake disc wear. The additive in the brake pads is the main component of the worn disc. The softness and hardness of the brake pads are not the cause of severe disc wear, but the main culprit is low-cost wear enhancers.
