Braking with tradition
For over 100 years, the Mintex brand has consistently demonstrated a commitment to ongoing product development – a philosophy that exists to this day and helps Mintex to stay ahead of the competition.
In a global car market where values depreciate quickly, Mintex brake pads are developed and engineered to meet a significant demand for cost-effective braking solutions that deliver the optimum balance between performance and extended service life, by providing quality products at affordable prices.
As vehicle speeds continue to increase, the demands placed on the brakes become greater. Combined with the increasing market need for OE-quality aftermarket friction products, TMD Friction continues to improve the specifications of Mintex friction.
Regulation 90 (ECE R90) sets a minimum manufacturing and safety standard for replacement brake pads and shoes. During development, each new Mintex brake pad is subjected to much more exhaustive testing than Regulation 90 requires, to ensure it performs not only to R90 standards, but also to TMD Friction standards.

What are brake pads, and what is their primary function in a vehicle's braking system?
- Brake pads are friction materials that play a vital role in your vehicle's ability to stop. When you press the brake pedal, hydraulic pressure is applied to the brake calipers, which squeeze the brake pads against the brake rotors (or discs). This friction generates heat and slows down the rotation of the wheels, eventually bringing your vehicle to a stop. Brake pads are essential for converting the kinetic energy of your moving car into heat energy to stop safely and efficiently.
How often should I replace my brake pads? Is there a specific mileage or time frame I should follow?
- The replacement interval for brake pads can vary depending on several factors, including your driving habits, vehicle type, and the type of brake pads used. On average, brake pads are typically replaced every 30,000 to 70,000 miles (48,000 to 112,000 kilometers). However, it's essential to monitor your brake pads for signs of wear and listen for any unusual noises. If you notice decreased braking performance, squeaking, grinding, or if your brake warning light is on, it's time to have your brake pads inspected and possibly replaced sooner.
What are the signs that my brake pads may need replacing?
- Squeaking or squealing noises when you apply the brakes.
- Grinding or growling sounds, indicating that the pads have worn down to the metal.
- Reduced braking performance, such as a longer stopping distance.
- Vibrations or pulsations in the brake pedal.
- The brake warning light on your dashboard is illuminated.
Do I need to replace both the front and rear brake pads at the same time, or can I do them separately?
- Brake wear can vary between the front and rear wheels, and it's common to replace them as needed. However, it's essential to maintain balance and even braking performance. If one set of pads has significantly more wear than the other, it's advisable to replace both the front (axle set) or both the rear pads(axle set) simultaneously to ensure consistent braking.
Are there any special maintenance tips or precautions I should take to extend the lifespan of my brake pads?
- Avoid aggressive driving habits like hard braking.
- Maintain proper tyre inflation to reduce strain on the brakes.
- Regularly inspect and clean your brakes to remove dust and debris.
- Use high-quality brake fluid and have it changed per your vehicle's recommended schedule.
- Follow a balanced driving style that minimises unnecessary braking and coasting when possible.
What are the potential consequences of neglecting brake pad replacement when they are worn out?
- Increased stopping distances, which can result in accidents.
- Reduced braking effectiveness, especially in emergency situations.
- Increased wear on other brake components, like Brake Discs/Rotors and calipers, leading to more expensive repairs.
- The risk of damaging the brake Disc/Rotor surface, which may necessitate costly rotor replacement.
- Ultimately, neglecting brake pad replacement can compromise your safety and result in more significant repair costs.
Can I install brake pads myself, or should I have a professional mechanic do it?
- While some experienced car owners may be able to replace brake pads themselves, it's generally recommended to have a qualified mechanic handle this task. Brake pad replacement involves crucial safety components, and an incorrect installation can lead to brake failure, putting your safety at risk. Professional mechanics have the necessary expertise and tools to ensure proper installation, including brake bleeding and caliper inspection.
How do I properly break in new brake pads to ensure optimal performance and longevity?
-
Initial Gentle Driving: After having new brake pads installed, drive your vehicle cautiously for the first 200-300 miles (320-480 kilometers). During this period, avoid aggressive or sudden stops.
-
Progressive Braking: Gradually increase the brake pressure over the initial miles to bed the brake pads and Discs/Rotors together. This helps create an even friction surface.
-
Avoid Hard Stops: Do not perform hard or emergency stops during the break-in period, as this can lead to uneven pad wear and decreased braking performance.
-
Cooling Period: After driving, allow the brakes to cool down naturally. Avoid parking your vehicle immediately after intense braking, as this can lead to brake pad imprinting on the rotor.
-
Monitor Performance: Pay attention to how your brakes feel during the break-in period. If you notice any unusual noises or decreased performance, consult a mechanic.
