Brake Expander Industry Knowledge Extension

learn About Brake Expanders

Brake expanders also known as brake shoes or brake pads, are a vital component of the braking system in various vehicles and machinery. They play a crucial role in slowing down or stopping the motion of a vehicle by creating friction against the rotating brake drum or disc. Brake expanders are widely used in automobiles, motorcycles, industrial machinery, and other applications where controlled braking is necessary. Shaoxing Tiean is a professional brake expanders manufacturer you can trust on it.

Working Principle and Components of Brake Expanders

Brake expanders function based on the principle of frictional force conversion. When the brake pedal is pressed, it activates the hydraulic system, which in turn applies pressure to the brake expanders. This pressure causes the brake expanders to expand and make contact with the rotating brake drum or disc, creating friction. The resulting frictional force generates a torque that opposes the rotation of the wheel, ultimately slowing down or stopping the vehicle.

The key components of a brake expander include the brake lining, brake shoe, return springs, and anchor pins. The brake lining, typically made of friction materials such as organic compounds, ceramics, or metallic materials, is the part that comes into contact with the brake drum or disc. It is designed to withstand high temperatures and provide optimal frictional characteristics for efficient braking.

The brake shoe is the structural component that holds the brake lining and provides a means for transferring the braking force. It is typically made of metal and is designed to withstand the pressure and heat generated during braking. The return springs ensure that the brake shoe retracts after the braking force is released, allowing the wheel to rotate freely.
