What are the issues that need to be considered when purchasing brake pads?


The application of brake pads has some advantages such as long service life and being able to balance the braking distance. However, there are more types of friction sheets on the market now, and the quality of different product brands of friction sheets is also different. Now, Hualong friction Xiaobian will introduce some methods for purchasing brake pad quality.
Genuine brake pads look smooth, clean, good material, will not be hard or soft, with the ability to balance the braking distance, long service life and other advantages. The quality of brake pads is mainly determined by the material used, so it is difficult to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages with the naked eye, and the owner is often fooled. Identifying genuine brake pads requires specialized knowledge and skills to test it out, but there are still some small differences that allow us to distinguish the authenticity of brake pads. Here are some important differentiating details:
1. Look at the packaging. The packaging of the original accessories is generally standardized, unified standard specifications, and the printing and writing are clear and regular, while the packaging and printing of shoddy products are coarse and poor, and it is often easy to find flaws from the packaging;
2. Look at the color. The surface of some original parts specifies a certain color, if other colors, it is fake and shoddy parts;
3. Look at appearances. The appearance of the original accessories printing or casting and marking are clear and regular, and the appearance of shoddy products is rough;
4. Look at the paint. Illegal businessmen will waste parts through simple processing, such as dismantling, assembling, assembling, painting, etc., and then sell as qualified products, illegally obtain high profits;
5. Look at the texture. The materials of the original accessories are qualified materials according to the design requirements, and the fake and shoddy products are mostly replaced by cheap and inferior materials.
6. Look at the craft. Although the appearance of inferior products is sometimes good, due to poor production process, it is easy to crack, sand holes, slag inclusion, burrs or bruises;
7. Look at storage. Brake pads if there are problems such as cracking, oxidation, discoloration or aging, it may be caused by poor environment in storage, long storage time, poor material itself and other reasons.
8. Look at the joint. If the phenomenon of brake pad rivet loose, degumming, electrical parts joint welding, paper filter core joint off, it can not be used.
9. Read the sign. Some regular parts are marked with certain marks, pay attention to the identification of the production license and the designated friction coefficient on the packaging, without these two marks of the product, its quality is difficult to guarantee.
10. Look for gaps. The regular assembly parts must be complete and intact to ensure smooth installation and normal operation. Some of the individual small parts on the assembly are missing, generally "parallel goods", which cause difficulties in installation. Often due to the shortage of individual small parts, resulting in the abandonment of the entire assembly parts.
