Brake Shoes/Pads

Brake pads are automotive components that belong to the family of disc brakes. These are steel plates having frictional materials to facing to disc brakes rotors. It is a component which changes the kinetic energy to thermal energy by the friction created because of it. When you put your feet on brake pedal, the caliper compresses the pads onto the spinning rotor in order to slow down or stop the car. It gets heated up, as a result of continuous contact with the rotor, it leaves the friction material on discs with a coating on it. Both brake discs and pads then stick together and offer a friction to stop the vehicle.
