Effective braking is essential to ensure the better performance of the vehicles, which contributes significantly to road safety. Yet, in the aftermarket industry, many available brake pads fail to meet the necessary standards, leaving drivers with products that compromise safety and increase long-term maintenance costs. A particular concern has emerged with brake pads that lack the proper composition, including essential materials like shim, which can significantly impact the overall braking system. Without high-quality materials, the brake rotors can wear down prematurely, turning black or becoming damaged faster than expected. This not only reduces the efficiency of the braking system but also increases repair and maintenance costs.
