In automotive braking systems, disc brake pads and drum brake pads are two common designs. They have significant differences in structure, performance, and usage, and the correct selection of a suitable braking system is crucial for driving safety.

Disc brake pads: Disc brake pads consist of brake discs and brake calipers. When the driver steps on the brake pedal, the brake calipers will clamp the brake pads on both sides of the brake disc, generating braking force through friction, thereby slowing down or stopping the car.

Drum brake pads: Drum brake pads consist of brake drums, brake drums, and brake shoes. When the driver steps on the brake pedal, brake fluid enters the brake drum through the brake pipeline, causing the brake shoes inside the brake drum to expand and generate braking force through friction and contact with the brake drum, achieving deceleration or parking of the car.
