How do Drum Brakes Work?

Brake shoes push against the brake drum to slow down the rotation of the wheel, causing your car to stop. Because they endure so much friction, drum brakes and shoes can become heat damaged, which can have a negative impact on your braking system. 

So, it's important you repair and maintain them to keep your brakes in check. A brake shoe set consists of a primary brake shoe, which is larger, and secondary brake shoes, which are smaller.

Difference Between Drum Brakes and Disc Brakes?

Drum brakes use an expanding hydraulic cylinder to press against the inside of a rotating drum whereas a disc brake uses a calliper to hold the friction brake pads against the brake disc.

Why are Drum Brakes still on Modern Cars?

Drum brakes still exist on modern cars due to the low cost of manufacturing and the less complexity of the design. They are less expensive to produce due to the fact they need fewer parts than disc brakes. They tend to be only on the rear wheels and can function as a service brake and hand brake. 

Auto manufacturers continue to use rear drum brakes for two main reasons – lower cost and less complexity. Drum brakes are less expensive to produce because they require fewer parts than disc brakes. Unlike disc brakes, drum brakes can function as both a service brake and a parking brake.
