Brake Drum
Product Overview
One such part that plays a critical role in a significant number of braking systems, especially in commercial vehicles, heavy-duty trucks, and some passenger cars is a Car Brake Drum. A Brake Drum exporter has designed it as a safety and performance brake that offers good braking by transforming kinetic energy into heat by friction.
How Do Brake Drums Work?
A Brake Drum is used to generate friction where the brake shoes touch its inner face. This friction causes the rotation of the wheel to be slowed down which practically causes the vehicle to come to a standstill.
The braking process is smooth and reliable since it converts the kinetic energy into heat. Brake drums are well designed to provide even heat dissipation as well as performance.

FAQs
A brake drum is a component that offers force to a set of brake shoes so that they can decelerate or halt the car.
Depending on use and maintenance, it varies but on average it is around 150,000-200,000 km.
This may prove advantageous in efficiency by cleaning the brake parts regularly, changing brake shoes punctually, inspecting the surface of the drum and so forth.
Weird and uncharacteristic noise, poor performance, vibrations during braking, and some cracks/wear on the drum.
