Brake Pads | Brake Rotors | Brake Calipers
The Ram 1500 brake system is comprised of the following key components:
- Rotors also called discs or drums are what your pads grip in order to stop the wheels from spinning. There are various 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 Ram 1500
- Heat Shield or dust shield helps impede grime buildup thereby extending the life of your brake system.
- Parking Brake cable or adjuster is a steel cable used to trigger 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 Ram 1500.
- Backing plate & return spring holds your Ram 1500 braking system together so it can function accurately.
- Anti-lock Braking System pump and a computer allows your vehicle to keep traction on the road continuously.
- Brake Hoses transmit brake fluid from the brake line to your Ram 1500 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 Ram 1500 maintenance schedule for more data on when your hoses should be replaced.
- Brake pads or shoes are the parts that physically make contact with your brake rotor and apply pressure or friction to slow and stop your wheels from turning. It's extremely critical to keep Ram 1500 brake pads fresh by replacing them as they endure quite a bit of stress each time they are used. Check your Ram 1500 maintenance schedule for the advised mileage intervals.
- Master cylinder or hydraulic cylinder converts the pressure you put on your Ram 1500 brake pedals to power the rest of your brake system by feeding brake fluid into the brake circuit.
- Brake Calipers squeeze the brake pads up against your Ram 1500 rotors to slow or stop your vehicle.
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 also acts as a safety measure to let you know your brakes need repair. This can also 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 also 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 evenly distribute pressure against the brake disc. Often, the more pistons in a caliper, the more evenly the pressure from the pads is spread onto the brake disc.
How often do brake rotors need to be replaced?
Ram 1500 rotors should be replaced by 70,000 miles but may wear out faster depending on your driving habits and a host of other factors. Usually you will need to change rotors in pairs starting with the front axle of your Ram 1500 as they tend to wear out quicker. Schedule an appointment online with Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM Surprise to get a free multipoint inspection on your complete brake system.
How long do Ram 1500 brake rotors last?
This depends massively on the type of rotors, your driving style, and the type of vehicle you're driving. Ram 1500 rotors need to be replaced each 30,000 - 80,000 miles depending on the factors above. Confer with your Ram maintenance manual for more advice. Remember, it's constantly a good idea to have your complete brake system checked out by a franchise dealer with the correct training to spot potential issues before they cause damage to other components of your Ram 1500 brake system.
