2. Brake pad - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_pad

   Brake pads should be checked at least every 5,000 miles for excessive or uneven wear. Although brake pad wear is unique to each vehicle, it is generally recommended that brake pads be replaced every 50,000 miles, [6] while brake discs (or rotors) typically last longer, needing replacement every 70,000 miles.

3. Brake lining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_lining

   The complete assembly (including lining and backing) is then often called a brake pad or brake shoe. The dynamic friction coefficient "μ" for most standard brake pads is usually in the range of 0.35 to 0.42. This means that a force of 1000 Newtons on the pad will give a resulting brake force close to 400 Newtons.

4. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

   Water vaporizes easily with heat and can corrode the metal parts of the system. Water which enters brake lines, even in small amounts, will react with most common brake fluids (i.e., those which are hygroscopic [8] [9]) causing the formation of deposits which can clog the brake lines and reservoir. It is almost impossible to completely seal any ...

6. Brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake

   Frictional brakes are most common and can be divided broadly into "shoe" or "pad" brakes, using an explicit wear surface, and hydrodynamic brakes, such as parachutes, which use friction in a working fluid and do not explicitly wear. Typically the term "friction brake" is used to mean pad/shoe brakes and excludes hydrodynamic brakes, even though ...

7. Drum brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drum_brake

   A drum brake is a brake that uses friction caused by a set of shoes or pads that press outward against a rotating bowl-shaped part called a brake drum. The term drum brake usually means a brake in which shoes press on the inner surface of the drum. When shoes press on the outside of the drum, it is usually called a clasp brake.
