Title: What are the Causes Behind the Worn Brake Pad


1
What are the Causes Behind the Worn Brake Pad
2
The braking system relies on the brake pad of
your car to create the necessary friction needed
to slow down the car.
3
The brake pads are positioned within the brake
caliper, so when you put the step on the brake
pedal to down your car, then it will create
friction.
4
The brake pads have the friction materials which
will wear down eventually on both sides of the
car and force you to replace the brake pads.
5
The common causes behind the worn brake pads of
your car are described in the below-defined
points.
6
Sticky caliper piston
7
If you found that the debris or rust are covered
over the one or more piston of your car, then it
will make the brake caliper sticky.
8
When the brake caliper of your car is sticky,
then the piston unable to slide properly and
cause problems in the brake pads.
9
In this way, the brake pads of the car make
uneven contact with the spinning rotors
throughout the car and wear it.
10
Dirty rotors
11
The dirty rotors of your car are the possible
causes of worn brake pads and will not only cause
in the old rotor as well as in new rotors also.
12
So, for preventing the worn brake pads, you need
to clean the rotors with a formulated brake
cleaners to remove the debris.
13
For preventing the dirt or rust over the rotors,
your mechanic can apply the anti-rust coating
over the rotors.
14
Variation in thickness disc
15
The disc thickness of your car defined the
mechanical term which is generally recognized
when the rotors of the car have different levels
of thickness.
16
If you notice the variations in the thickness
level of the rotor, then it will wear out the
brake pads faster.
17
When the brake pads come into contact with discs
it will cause more flat spots in it and worn out
brake pads will become uneven throughout the car.

18
Misalignment
19
When you install new brake pads in your car, if
your mechanic aligns them improperly, then it
will wear out the brake pads.
20
So, you will notice the worn out brake pad
problems in your car within the week or months of
the new brake pad misalignment.
21
Once you experience the braking issues in your
car, then take your car to your mechanic for
aligning the brake pads properly.
