- JSJohn Paul SandersonNov 26, 20255.0Wonderful service, great prices and al around great people. Needed a battery for my 2022 van and the guy behind the counter worked with me on getting the right one. No up sales, no hard lines just honesty helpful work. Even changed it out too. Very informative and will definitely be back for future projects. *Thanks again to the counter man, even though I forget his name. Big guy like me, shiny head lol*

HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
