    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drum_brake

    A drum brake is a brake that uses friction caused by a set of shoes or pads that press outward against a rotating bowl-shaped part called a brake drum. The term drum brake usually means a brake in which shoes press on the inner surface of the drum. When shoes press on the outside of the drum, it is usually called a clasp brake.

    [3] [4] The success of the Jaguar is commonly attributed to the car’s disc brakes, which allowed the drivers to approach turns faster and brake later than their opponents, which ultimately led to its victory. As late as 1963 the majority of automobiles using disc brakes were European made, with American cars adopting the technology in the ...

    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]

  6. Brake wear indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_wear_indicator

    The embedded sensor in the brake pad 2 contacts the rotor and creates a connection to ground of the sensor. The metal plate 3 contacts the rotor and creates a noise. This wear clip should be positioned so that the rotor contacts the clip before it contacts the brake pad. The rotor should push against that clip, not drag it away from the brake pad.

  9. Brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake

    Frictional brakes are most common and can be divided broadly into "shoe" or "pad" brakes, using an explicit wear surface, and hydrodynamic brakes, such as parachutes, which use friction in a working fluid and do not explicitly wear. Typically the term "friction brake" is used to mean pad/shoe brakes and excludes hydrodynamic brakes, even though ...
