Key Features & Benefits

This brake shoe is really the heart of a drum brake system. It’s a curved piece of metal with friction material bonded to it. When you hit the brake pedal, hydraulic pressure pushes these shoes outward against the inside of the drum. That friction is what actually slows and stops your vehicle. It’s a pretty simple system, but incredibly effective when everything’s working right. Think of it like this – disc brakes have calipers squeezing pads onto a rotor. Drum brakes use these shoes inside a drum. The drum spins with the wheel, and the shoe presses against that spinning drum to create the stopping force. It’s most common on the rear wheels these days, though you’ll still find full drum systems on some older or lighter – duty vehicles. These 410x220 dimensions just refer to the specific size and shape required for your vehicle’s drum.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, stopping is pretty crucial, wouldn’t you agree? Seriously though, worn brake shoes mean longer stopping distances, uneven braking, and can even damage your drums. You’ll notice if they're going bad – things like squealing noises, pulling to one side when you brake, or just needing to press the pedal much harder than usual. It's a safety thing, plain and simple. If you’re doing a brake job yourself, we’ve got a good selection of these and other brake parts at Fixparts Online.
