Brake Pads | Brake Rotors | Brake Calipers

It's immensely critical to keep Nissan Z brake pads fresh by replacing them as they go through quite a bit of stress each time they are used. Check your Nissan Z maintenance schedule for the recommended mileage intervals.
- Backing plate & return spring holds your Nissan Z braking system together so it can function properly.
- Brake Hoses transmit brake fluid from the brake line to your Nissan Z brake calipers. It's made of rubber and is flexible so that it can move with the suspension. These hoses need to be examined consistently for cracks and other symptoms of deterioration. Check your Nissan Z maintenance schedule for more facts on when your hoses should be replaced.
- Master cylinder or hydraulic cylinder converts the pressure you put on your Nissan Z brake pedals to power the rest of your brake system by feeding brake fluid into the brake circuit.
- Heat Shield or dust shield helps impede grime buildup thereby continuing the life of your brake system.
- Parking Brake cable or adjuster is a steel cable used to initiate the parking brakes. When the lever is used or pedal depressed, the cable pulls the calipers or drums to initiate the parking brake of your Nissan Z.
- Brake Calipers squeeze the brake pads up against your Nissan Z rotors to slow or stop your car.
- Rotors still called discs or drums are what your pads grip in order to stop the wheels from spinning. There are different types of brake rotors (Blank or "smooth" rotors, Cross-drilled rotors, slotted, drilled and slotted). Let find the best type of brake rotors for your Nissan Z
- Anti-lock Braking System pump and a computer allows your car to keep traction on the road continuously.
Brake pads consist of two layers: a metal backing plate and a high-friction material that includes rubber, fiber, carbon & other materials. Over time, brake pads wear down and can even start squeaking. This noise is the metal backing plate & the rotor touching, which likewise acts as a safety measure to let you know your brakes need repair. This can likewise cause damage to your rotors and, in some cases, can even start distorting them. In addition to serving as a "platform" for the friction material, the backing plate likewise protects the brake caliper from disproportionate heat buildup.
Brake calipers cover the rotors and contain pistons. The amount of pistons depends on the type of brake system. Brake fluid from the master cylinder forces these pistons to maneuver the brake pads against the disc. The brake caliper will uniformly distribute pressure against the brake disc. Often, the more pistons in a caliper, the more uniformly the pressure from the pads is spread onto the brake disc.
How often do brake rotors need to be replaced?
Usually you will need to replace rotors in pairs starting with the front axle of your Nissan Z as they tend to wear out quicker.
