A: A brake drum in MAZ vehicles is a cylindrical component attached to the wheel hub, working with brake shoes to create friction and slow the vehicle. It is critical for drum brake systems in trucks and heavy-duty applications. Regular inspection helps prevent wear and ensure safety.
A: A drum brake drum uses internal brake shoes that press outward against the drum, while disc brakes use pads that clamp onto a rotor. Drum systems are common in older or heavy vehicles, offering cost-effectiveness but requiring more maintenance.
A: Replace the brake drum and brake shoe in your MAZ truck if you notice grinding noises, reduced braking efficiency, or visible cracks/grooves. Always replace shoes and drums as a set to ensure even wear and optimal performance.
A: Yes, but ensure aftermarket brake drums for MAZ meet OEM specifications for size, material, and heat resistance. Low-quality replacements may compromise safety and longevity, especially under heavy loads.
A: Premature wear in drum brake systems is often caused by overheating, contaminated brake linings, or improper adjustment of brake shoes. Frequent stop-and-go driving or overloading accelerates degradation.
