Essential component of the braking system, commonly found on older cars, trucks and some motorcycles. It is part of the drum brake system, which uses friction to effectively slow or stop the vehicle.
Overview
Brake drums are commonly used in the rear brakes of older vehicles or those designed for light duty. However, modern cars are increasingly using disc brakes on all four wheels to improve heat dissipation and performance.
01
Constructed from high-strength materials such as cast iron to withstand the wear, heat and pressure of braking.
02
Designed to dissipate heat effectively, preventing overheating and maintaining consistent braking performance.
03
Features a smooth, textured surface that works with the brake pads to create the friction necessary for stopping power.
04
Manufactured with high precision to ensure correct fit and optimum performance in the braking system.
Commonly found in the rear brake systems of older cars, especially those with drum brakes.
Used in light-duty trucks for reliable braking, particularly in rear axle applications.
Used in larger vehicles such as buses and vans, often in the rear brake systems for efficient stopping power.
Used in construction machinery and agricultural vehicles, where drum brake systems are used for high performance.
