GDB100 TRW Brake Pad Set, disc brake COTEC

These pads are really the part that actually stops your car when you hit the brakes. They clamp down on the rotors – those big metal discs you see behind your wheels – creating friction. That friction is what slows and eventually brings the vehicle to a halt. A set includes pads for both wheels on an axle, so you’re generally replacing them in pairs. They’re designed to wear down over time, that’s just how they work. They're a critical part of your braking system, obviously. When you press the brake pedal, hydraulic pressure pushes the pads against the rotors. Think of it like this: the rotor is the drum, and the pads are what squeeze it to create stopping power. Everything else in the brake system – the master cylinder, brake lines, calipers – all works to get those pads where they need to be, with enough force to stop the car safely. They act like a shield between the caliper and the rotor. Well, if these wear down too much, you lose stopping power. It's that simple. You’ll notice if they’re really bad – maybe a grinding noise when you brake, or it takes longer to come to a stop. But even before it gets that bad, reduced braking performance is dangerous. Replacing them regularly is a key part of keeping you and everyone else on the road safe. You can often find a good set, like the ones we carry at Fixparts Online, for a reasonable price, and it's a lot cheaper than dealing with a potential accident. It’s a pretty straightforward repair, but if you’re not comfortable doing it yourself, any good mechanic can take care of it for you.
