0986490500 Bosch Brake Lining

Brake lining is basically the friction material on your brake shoes or brake pads. It’s what actually presses against the brake drum or rotor to slow and stop the vehicle. Think of it like the part that does the stopping – everything else just moves that friction material into position. It’s a composite material, usually made of things like organic materials, metallic powders, and sometimes even ceramic fibers, all bonded together. Different mixes give you different performance characteristics – more stopping power, less dust, quieter operation, that sort of thing. It’s a critical part of your braking system, obviously. When you hit the brake pedal, hydraulic pressure pushes the brake shoes (if you have drum brakes) or brake pads (with disc brakes) against the drum or rotor. The lining is the part that creates the friction that converts your speed into heat, bringing the car to a stop. It’s a wear item, meaning it will get used up over time. That’s normal. On drum brakes, the lining is bonded directly to the shoes, while on pads it’s either bonded or mechanically attached. Because your safety depends on it! Without adequate brake lining, your stopping distance increases dramatically. You’ll notice if your lining is worn down because you might experience longer stopping distances, squealing or grinding noises when braking, or even the brake pedal feeling spongy. It's a relatively inexpensive part to replace compared to the cost of a collision. You can find a good selection of brake linings – and everything else you might need for the job – over at Fixparts Online. It's always best to replace linings in pairs – so both sides of the axle, for example – to ensure even braking and prevent pulling to one side. Adaptable and durable: Brake Lining (MPN 0986490500) comes with a 12-month warranty!
