High Performance Brake System Components
Put simply, your vehicle's brake system is designed to "inhibit motion." Just like you love to get your car up and running, sometimes you need that vehicle to stop on short notice, too. It's the brake system that makes this possible. While brake rotors are just one part of your brake system, it's beneficial to learn about all the primary car brake system components and how they work in conjunction with the rotors. ...
Main Brake System Components
What you think of as "brakes" is actually a system of complex components in your vehicle. Each of them works together to give you the power to stop your vehicle when you need to. These brake assembly components include:
- Brake Pads: Brake pads provide a cushion between your brake system and its vital components. If you let your brake pads wear thin, your rotors will become damaged, eventually grinding your vehicle to a halt altogether, so regular brake pad changes are essential
- Brake Shoes: Shoes are metal friction plates of different types that insulate against the brake drums (more on that in a minute).
- Brake Rotors
- Brake Calipers: The disc brake system has calipers, and they have pistons within them that meet brake fluid and help to decelerate your vehicle.
What is the Function of Brake Rotors?
Rotors are to your brake system what your heart is to your body. It keeps everything flowing in motion, or in this case, the cessation of motion. Brake pads clamp down on rotors to stop your vehicle. So, if your rotors are slowly wearing away due to bad brake pads, you can expect to have a disaster on your hands if you let the condition go for too long.
Rotor Issue Symptoms
If your rotors are showing any of the following symptoms, it might be time to take your vehicle in for a full brake system inspection.
- Grinding: If you're hearing grinding noises when your vehicle's brake system is engaged, it's very likely that you have a rotor issue on your hands (as well as a brake pad breakdown). Remember that once the pads are worn enough, your rotors will begin to suffer, causing deterioration every time you apply your brakes.
- Abrupt Stops: If you have a healthy brake system, your vehicle is going to gradually stop when you apply the brakes. But if your pads and rotors are damaged, you’ll experience abrupt stops, no matter how gradually you apply the brake.
- Vibrating: If you apply the brake pedal and your vehicle begins vibrating, you might be having issues with your rotors or other brake components.
