The function of truck brake linner is to use friction to convert the kinetic energy of the vehicle into heat energy, thus slowing down or stopping the vehicle. As an important safety brake accessory for truck, it needs to be checked frequently to prevent problems such as brake failure. So how often should the truck brake linner be replaced ?
1. Regular Inspection And Replacement Of Brake Linner
The replacement interval for truck brake pads depends on a variety of factors, including the vehicle's driving conditions, how often and how hard the driver presses the brake pedal, whether or not the vehicle is driven a lot in urban areas, and the weight of the load.
a. When the mileage exceeds 10,000 kilometers, the brake pads need to be inspected, including the remaining thickness, wear state, etc.
b. The replacement mileage of regular brake pads is about every 25,000 to 30,000 kilometers.
2. Matters Concerning The Use Of Truck Brake Linner
a. Avoid hard braking. Sharp braking will lead to high temperature and high pressure between the brake pads and brake discs, resulting in sintering or deformation of the surface of the brake pads, affecting the braking effect and life.
b. Reduce braking frequency. Frequent braking will accelerate the wear and tear of the brake pads and reduce the braking performance. In the process of driving, you can use the engine braking or gear reduction to reduce the speed, reduce the burden on the brake system.
c. Inspect brake pads regularly. Generally speaking, brake pads should be replaced in time when they are badly worn. If you hear a metallic rubbing sound when braking or feel the brakes softening or shaking, you should also check whether the brake pads are damaged or expired.
