The brake pad (also known as brake pad) in the bicycle disc brake clamp is a very important part of the disc brake system. They interact with the brake discs and create friction when used to brake to slow the bike down or stop the vehicle. The main function of the brake is to provide efficient braking performance to ensure safe driving.
The material of the Leiling sheet is usually a semi-metallic composite material with a high friction coefficient, such as a mixture of organic resin and metal particles, to provide good braking effect. They usually consist of two fitted semi-circular sheets that can be fixed to the disc brake clamp by means of a brake clamp. This design reduces the contact area with the brake disc, thereby reducing wear and friction heat generation.
One of the main functions of Leiling is to provide reliable braking force. When the brake handle is pulled, the brake clamp will press the disc to the brake disc. As the brake disc rotates on the wheel, friction is generated between the disc and the brake disc. This friction slows down the rotation of the wheels, causing the bike to slow down or stop. The brake disc provides reliable braking force by providing high friction between the brake disc and the brake disc.
Lai Ling sheet also has good heat dissipation performance. Friction heat is generated when braking, and if it is not timely dissipated, it may lead to overheating of the brake disc or brake disc, thus affecting the brake performance. To solve this problem, the brake plate is usually designed with a heat sink or heat dissipation hole to increase the heat dissipation surface area, help the friction heat quickly dissipate, and maintain the stability of the brake performance.
In addition, the Leiling sheet also has wear resistance. Due to the high friction during braking, the disc will wear. In order to improve the wear resistance, the sheet is usually made of a harder material, and some metal particles are added to provide better wear performance. However, the wear of the brake is inevitable, so it is necessary to check and replace the brake regularly to ensure the stability and safety of the brake performance.
In addition, the Lai Ling sheet must also have good wet braking performance. On rainy or slippery roads, the braking effect may be worse because the moisture reduces the coefficient of friction of the brake pads. To solve this problem, some tablets add a coating of ceramic or metal fluoride to provide better wet braking performance. These coatings maintain a high coefficient of friction in wet conditions, providing a more reliable braking effect.
In short, the Leiling plate plays a key role in the bicycle disc brake clamp. They guarantee the safety and reliability of the bicycle during running by providing reliable braking force, good heat dissipation, wear resistance and wet braking performance. Therefore, the use of high-quality brake, regular inspection and replacement of the brake, is an important step to maintain good bicycle brake performance.
