How much do you know about the counterfeit brake pads ?

Brake pads play a very important role in the entire braking system, and it can play a key role in preventing emergency safety accidents. Any profitable product will be counterfeit and inferior. If you accidentally choose inferior brake pads, it is tantamount to planting an untimely bomb for your car.

The real brake pads have strong high temperature resistance and stable continuous braking performance, while the counterfeit brake pads have poor high temperature resistance. If the brakes are braked at high speeds or continuously downhill in mountainous areas, the braking distance becomes longer and even fails. If it is rainy, the counterfeit brake pads will not stop. In experiments by foreign automakers, after continuous braking at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour, the average braking distance of the original brake pads was about 15.8 meters, while the counterfeit brake pads braked for the fourth time and the braking distance was as long as 19.8 meters. The difference between the two was about 4 meters. As the number of brakes continues to increase, this gap is getting bigger and bigger. The test speed was increased to 100 kilometers per hour. Compared with the original brake pads, the braking distance of the counterfeit brake pads was longer than 10 meters.

The main hazards of using counterfeit and low-quality brake pads are as follows:

1. Counterfeit and inferior brake pads can easily cause the wheels to lock up and lose control of the direction;

2. Counterfeit and inferior brake pads cause the braking distance to be extended. When emergency braking is required, it is impossible to stop in time, causing an accident;

3. Counterfeit and low-quality brake pads have a short service life. Although the friction pads are vulnerable parts, they should ensure a certain service life;

4. Counterfeit and inferior brake pads will wear out the brake disc and reduce the life of the brake disc

5. Counterfeit and inferior brake pads have strong thermal conductivity, which reduces the service life of the brake caliper, and at the same time creates certain brake concerns;

6. There is braking noise during the use of counterfeit and inferior brake pads;

Car driving safety is the key, so when buying brake pads, the majority of car owners must pay attention to buying brand-guaranteed parts to distinguish the authenticity. They must not buy cheap brake pads for cheap to avoid potential accidents.
