What is the difference between ceramic brake pads and ordinary metal brake pads? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
The biggest difference between ceramic brake pads and traditional brake pads is that they do not contain metal. Generally, metal will be lost during friction, but this does not happen with ceramics, and ordinary brake pads are also very noisy when used. After installing ceramic brake pads, there will be no abnormal noise during normal driving. However, the ceramic ones make no noise and are more comfortable to use.
1. Solve abnormal noise. It does not contain metal components and avoids the sound of friction with the brake disc.
2. Extend the life of the brake disc: Ceramic brake pads will not cause scratches on the brake disc, extending the service life of the original car's brake disc by 20%.
3. High temperature resistance: The high temperature resistance of ceramic brake pads is 650 degrees (the high temperature resistance of original vehicle brake pads is about 260 degrees). Particularly suitable for vehicle use in mountainous terrain
4. The friction coefficient of the product must be higher than that of metal brake pads
5. Fast heat dissipation
6. Stable friction coefficient. When the temperature of the brake disc reaches 650 degrees, the friction coefficient of the ceramic brake pad is still around 0.45-0.55, which can ensure the vehicle has good braking performance.
Ceramics have good thermal stability, low thermal conductivity, and good wear resistance. The long-term use temperature is 1000 degrees. This characteristic makes ceramics suitable for the high performance requirements of various high-performance braking materials, and can meet the technical requirements of high-speed, safety, and high wear resistance of brake pads.
Disadvantages: higher than ordinary price
Everyone knows the advantages and disadvantages of ceramic brake pads. In fact, the main thing is that the price of ceramics is relatively high, but there are many benefits when using them. The disadvantages are not only high price, but also the stability and other aspects are very good, so You can rest assured when using it, and it can be replaced for a long time, so you can save worry and effort.
