Under normal circumstances, the temperature of the brake wheel should not be higher than the ambient temperature.
1. Factors affecting the temperature of the brake wheel
1. Brake material
Different brake materials have different temperatures. Some common brake materials and their temperature tolerance ranges are as follows:
- Organic brake materials, the temperature is generally below 150°C
- Semi-metallic brake materials, the temperature is generally below 300°C
- Ceramic brake materials, the temperature is generally below 700°C
2. Brake use environment
The temperature of the brake is also affected by the brake use environment, such as vehicle speed, number of brakes, road conditions and other factors. Generally speaking, the more frequently the brake is used, the higher the temperature will be.
3. Brake type
Different types of brakes also produce different temperatures when used. Some brakes can reduce the temperature by heat dissipation, while others cannot.
2. Brake wheel temperature range
Under normal use, the temperature of the brake wheel should generally not be higher than the ambient temperature. If the temperature is too high, it may cause damage to the brake and the brake system.
Different types of brakes have different temperature ranges. Some common temperature ranges are as follows:
- Organic brake materials have a temperature range of 100°C to 150°C
- Semi-metal brake materials have a temperature range of 150°C to 350°C
- Ceramic brake materials have a temperature range of 350°C to 700°C
In general, the temperature of the brakes needs to be paid attention to. If the temperature is too high, it may pose a threat to driving safety. It is recommended that when using the brakes, be careful not to overuse them and pay attention to the maintenance of the brake system.
