Brake disc operation
Brake discs, also referred to as brake plates or disc brakes, are essential components of the brakes on industrial vehicles such as forklifts, stackers and reach trucks. They help reduce the speed of your vehicle and bring it to a halt. When you press the brake pedal, the brake pads press against the brake discs, creating friction and causing your vehicle to slow down or stop.
The brakes on an industrial vehicle have to perform heavy duty and important tasks, which puts high demands on each component of the braking system. Because they rub together whenever the vehicle stops, brake discs are one of the parts that are most susceptible to wear and tear.
Choosing the right brake discs
How do you choose the right brake discs for your forklift? When selecting brake discs, it is important to consider factors such as the vehicle make, model and year of manufacture, as well as driving habits and desired performance. Make sure you choose brake discs specifically designed for your vehicle that meet the highest quality and safety standards.
Causes of brake disc wear
To extend the service life of your brake discs, it is important to perform regular maintenance − not only of the brake discs, but also of the brake lines, brake cylinders, brake pumps and other components of the braking system. Avoid excessive braking and have any defective parts repaired or replaced immediately to prevent brake disc damage. The friction of the brake pads inevitably rubs off material every time you brake, which means that over time the brakes will not work as effectively and must be replaced.
Buying/choosing brake discs from an extensive selection
High quality brake discs provide reliable braking power and a rapid response, which is essential for vehicle and driver safety. They maintain shorter braking distances and better control even under heavy loads or at high speeds, preventing accidents and injuries.
