To Assure Reliable Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0 For Sale Drive, Active Brakes Are Vital  


The braking process in Mitsubishi lancer 2.0 for sale is not limited only to the hydraulic system that transmits the force we exert on the pedal and converts it into pressure on the discs, friction and heat dissipation. So to speak, a car brakes properly if both the braking system and the suspensions and tires work well.

Viable Condition

It is very important that the wheels are correctly balanced, that the suspensions do not show any play or obvious signs of deterioration, and that the tires have the correct pressures. In fact, no matter how much braking power we have, if the tires are not capable of meeting the braking demand, our car will not respond adequately to the desire to brake. Being the only point of contact between the car and the road, the tire has an adhesion limit which is the one that places, in turn, the limit on the car's braking capacity. If we exceed that limit when braking, the tires will skid, or the ABS will start working (which will be normal), so that the braking distance will increase. Therefore, the good condition of the tires, their correct pressures and, also, their quality, will be decisive when it comes to guaranteeing good braking. In the same way, the suspensions are the elements of the car that keep the wheels in contact with the road, simplifying a lot. If the suspensions are not able to absorb uneven terrain properly, the tires may not be fully in contact with the road, and braking efficiency is compromised.

Very Potent

In any braking process of a vehicle, there is a transformation of the accumulated kinetic energy due to its speed into heat energy caused by friction between surfaces, with the consequent increase in the overall temperature of the system. This is the principle that governs any braking system in vehicles, both disc brakes and drum brakes. For the specific case of disc brakes, the object of this tutorial, this transfer of energy occurs during contact between a mobile element that rotates attached to the wheel, the brake disc, and another fixed part anchored to the stub axle that supports the wheel, the body of the caliper or caliper containing the brake pads. The disc braking system was developed at the same time that more and more powerful and heavier cars were manufactured, which needed a safe, fast and reliable response when their braking system was activated. Therefore, the disc brake system is an evolution of the braking systems in automobiles and there are many advantages that they have compared to traditional shoe and drum brakes.

Required Distance

Disc brakes are a more compact system, lighter in weight and occupying less volume than drum brakes for the same performance. And although the friction surface in disc brakes is usually smaller for the same size (flat plate on the disc, curved on the drum) it surpasses that of the drum in resistance to heating, because greater ventilation of the disc is possible, by not working indoors as happens with drum brakes. In addition, the disc brake pads are more progressive in braking, as they do not wedge like the shoes and drums do, resulting in more uniform braking. Another advantage of disc brakes, as a consequence of being better ventilated, is that they can offer more energetic braking, which translates into a shorter distance necessary for the vehicle to stop. This is so, because the friction elements in the case of disc brakes are mounted in the air, which provide better cooling, so that the absorption of kinetic energy and its transformation into heat can be carried out more quickly.

Finally, another advantage that deserves to be taken into account in disc brakes, especially in those where certain quality brake pads are used whose coefficient of friction of the material does not alter with temperature, is that they do not the phenomenon of "fading" appears, which tends to appear more frequently in drum brakes. "Fading" is one of the most dangerous phenomena that can occur in a braking system, since it consists of the loss of braking efficiency when it gets hot. This phenomenon usually occurs, for example, during vigorous braking or in a situation with repeated braking (when driving down a steep slope with the brake pedal applied). In this case, the temperature between the friction surfaces rises greatly. Thus, drum brakes do not provide enough to quickly evacuate all this heat that is generated. As a result, the drum expands, moving the grip surface away from contact with the brake shoes, so the vehicle could be left without a brake at times.

Need to Note

Remember, in any case, that the "fading" phenomenon is transitory, that is, a brake system that overheats and ends up developing the "fading" phenomenon, when it cools down (for example, leaving the pedal for some time without operating brake) returns to their original situation, that is, the pads regain their normal coefficient of friction and are operational again.  A Mitsubishi lancer 2.0 price payer need to aware, in   very modern passenger cars, the entire mechanical and engine system is located at the front of the vehicle, so the tare or unladen weight is shifted more towards the front end. In fact,   lots of weight falls on the front axle, while   lesser falls on the rear axle of the vehicle. This is a static load distribution, with the vehicle at rest or at a uniform speed, quite approximate for a large number of vehicles. But the situation changes radically during sudden braking or deceleration, where the dynamic effects originate the appearance of a new force, the inertial force (proportional to the mass of the vehicle and its load) that is added to the adhesion forces and wheel traction (Ft) and that will have a decisive impact on a new distribution of loads on the vehicle axles.
