2. Brake pad - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_pad

   Brake pads convert the kinetic energy of a vehicle to thermal energy through friction. Two brake pads are contained in the brake with their friction surfaces facing the rotor. [1] When the brakes are hydraulically applied, the caliper clamps or squeezes the two pads together onto the spinning rotor to slow and stop the vehicle.

3. GM 10.5-inch 14-bolt differential - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_10.5-inch_14-bolt...

   The initial design of the GM 10.5" 14-bolt differential spanned from 1973 to 1984, remaining unaltered until 1986. This iteration featured brake drums secured by wheel studs and utilized a smaller diameter pinion bearing compared to the subsequent design. The second design, in production since 1986, introduced notable improvements.

4. Disc brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_brake

   Close-up of a disc brake on a Renault car. A disc brake is a type of brake that uses the calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc (sometimes called a [brake] rotor) [1] to create friction. [2] There are two basic types of brake pad friction mechanisms: abrasive friction and adherent [further explanation needed] friction. [3]

   For the tests the vehicle brake for which the replacement linings are designed is installed in an inertia dynamometer instrumented for continuous recording of rotative speed, brake torque, brake line pressure, number of rotations after brake application, braking time, and brake rotor temperature. [1]
