Various Types of Bearing Brake Disc(source from :rdbrake.com)
The primary function of bearing brake discs is to provide a stable and reliable surface for the brake pads to grip, thereby facilitating effective braking. When the brake pedal is pressed, the brake pads clamp onto the spinning brake disc, generating friction that slows down the wheel's rotation. The bearings within the brake disc assembly ensure smooth and consistent rotation, minimizing wear and tear on the braking system.
Types of Bearing Brake Discs
Ventilated Brake Discs: These discs feature internal vanes or vents that allow air to circulate, dissipating heat more efficiently. They are commonly used in high-performance vehicles and heavy-duty applications where heat management is crucial.
Solid Brake Discs: These are simple, flat discs without internal vents. They are typically used in smaller or lighter vehicles where excessive heat build-up is less of a concern.
Drilled and Slotted Discs: These discs have holes and grooves that enhance heat dissipation and improve braking performance, especially under extreme conditions. They also help in expelling dust and debris from the braking surface.
Composite Brake Discs: Made from a combination of materials such as cast iron and carbon composites, these discs offer superior performance, reduced weight, and enhanced heat resistance. They are often found in high-end sports cars and racing applications.
Maintenance of Bearing Brake Discs
Regular maintenance of bearing brake discs is essential to ensure the longevity and reliability of the braking system. Key maintenance practices include:
Inspection: Regularly inspect the brake discs for signs of wear, such as grooves, cracks, or uneven surfaces. This can prevent potential brake failure.
Cleaning: Keep the brake discs clean from dust, dirt, and debris. Use appropriate cleaning solutions and tools to avoid damaging the surface.
Lubrication: Ensure that the bearings are properly lubricated to reduce friction and prevent overheating. Use the recommended type and amount of lubricant for optimal performance.
Replacement: Replace the brake discs when they show significant signs of wear or when they reach the manufacturer's recommended lifespan. Timely replacement can prevent more severe damage to the braking system.

Various Packaging way of Brake Discs( from RDBRAKE.COM)
In the automotive parts industry, as the key safety components, the packaging design of brake discs is not only related to the product's market image, but also directly affects consumers' purchasing decisions.
1. Plastic bag
Generally, brake discs are first packed in a plastic bag. The plastic bag will be sealed as customers' requirement.
2. Neutral white box and kraft paper box: low cost.
3. Neutral colorful box for brake discs
4, Colorful pizza box for brake discs
5, Pallet
