Disc Brakes and Spares

Disc brakes are integral to modern braking systems, employing a combination of mechanical and hydraulic components to ensure effective stopping power.

The key elements include the disc, rotor, caliper, and pads, which work together to create the necessary friction.

AL-KO and DeeMaxx offer high-quality spares designed to enhance performance, with options for galvanised, stainless, and dacromet finishes to resist corrosion.

Material selection affects durability and maintenance, making it crucial to select the right components for specific applications. By ensuring that everything from the rotor to the pads is optimised, vehicle owners can achieve superior braking efficiency and reliability.

Regular maintenance of disc brake systems is essential to extend their service life and ensure safety.

Inspections should include checking for wear on the pads and discs, as well as the condition of the caliper and hydraulic lines.

Upgrading to ventilated discs can improve heat dissipation, particularly in high-performance situations.

Additionally, selecting high-friction pads can enhance braking performance, especially in demanding driving conditions.

Ultimately, investing in high-quality components and maintenance will improve vehicle performance and provide peace of mind on the road.
