- WEWill EnglebyJan 5, 20265.0This is my auto parts store. Knowledgeable friendly staff. Jem is my go to sales person, she is patient, knows her parts, has a great wit. I can’t recommend her, Bruce and the whole team enough. With a main distribution center in town and 4-5 deliveries a day they get most parts same day or the next morning. 5 star for me.

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.
