Discover Quality Volvo 240 Brake Drums & Shoes
Ensuring that your Volvo 240 maintains optimal stopping power is crucial for your safety on the road. At the heart of your vehicle's braking system, you'll find the brake drums and shoes, key components that must be in top condition for effective braking performance. For owners of this classic Swedish model, finding the right braking components is essential.
Understanding Brake Drums and Shoes in Your Volvo 240
The Volvo 240 is renowned for its reliability and durability, and its braking system is no exception. Brake drums and shoes are typically found in the rear brake system of older vehicles, including the Volvo 240. The brake drum acts as a rotating cylinder that is slowed down by the brake shoes when the brake pedal is applied. Over time, these parts can wear down and may need replacement to ensure your Volvo 240 stops effectively and safely.
Choosing the Right Brake Drums & Shoes for Your Volvo 240
When selecting new brake drums and shoes for your Volvo 240, it's important to choose high-quality parts that match your vehicle's specifications. Not all brake components are created equal, and opting for premium-grade materials can significantly enhance your vehicle's braking performance and longevity. Whether you're performing routine maintenance or a complete brake system overhaul, we have the brake drums and shoes specifically designed for your Volvo 240.
Easy Installation and Maintenance
Replacing the brake drums and shoes on your Volvo 240 can be a straightforward process for those with some mechanical knowledge. However, it's always recommended to have a professional mechanic inspect and install your braking components to ensure proper fit and function. Regular checks and maintenance will keep your brake drums and shoes in good condition, providing peace of mind every time you drive.

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.
