- FNFred NewtonFeb 28, 20265.0I have used this store for many years and for the past year or more they have become more friendly and helpful than others I have visited. My most recent experience with Kimberly was probably one of my best ever. She was knowledgeable, helpful and explained what my purchase options were. She even thanked me for my service in the Army and let me use a few tools to do the job.Thank you so much for going out of your way for your customers and helping an old guy out!

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.
