Brake shoe / brake pad set AKS model 111297

Brake shoe / brake pad set AKS model 111297 is a replacement braking component designed to restore braking performance by providing friction material, backing plate and mounting shape that follow the original equipment geometry. The set is intended for use in compatible drum or disc brake systems depending on vehicle fitment and contains the elements needed to replace worn pads or shoes during routine brake maintenance or repair.

Advantages

The AKS brake shoe / brake pad set offers a direct-fit design that matches OEM mounting points and contact surfaces, allowing straightforward installation without the need for modification. Constructed with standard friction material formulated for balanced wear and braking response, the set aims to ensure consistent stopping performance and predictable pedal feel under normal operating conditions. Backing plates and shaping correspond to factory specifications to maintain correct alignment and reduce vibration and uneven wear when fitted correctly.

Suitable for

• Routine brake maintenance and pad/shoe replacement
• Brake repair jobs where original-style friction components are required
• Restoring braking performance after wear or contamination
• Use in vehicles that specify compatible drum or disc pad/shoe replacements

Key specifications

• Component type: brake shoe / brake pad set for passenger vehicles
• Material: friction compound bonded to steel backing plate
• Application: replacement for compatible drum or disc systems depending on vehicle fitment
• Fitment: direct-fit shape and mounting features designed to match OEM geometry
• Performance focus: balanced friction and wear characteristics for standard road use

How to use

Ensure correct identification of the required pad or shoe set for the vehicle before beginning. Lift the vehicle and secure it safely, remove the wheel and access the brake assembly. For disc systems, remove caliper and old pads, inspect caliper pistons and hardware, fit the replacement pads ensuring correct orientation and secure any retaining clips or pins. For drum systems, remove the drum, take out worn shoes and springs, fit the new shoes with the correct return springs and adjuster position, then reassemble. After installation, check for proper component seating and torque specifications per vehicle manufacturer recommendations. Perform a short series of low-speed brake applications to bed the new friction material and verify pedal response before normal driving.

Usage recommendations

Use only the pad/shoe configuration specified for the vehicle and replace hardware or shims if worn. Avoid aggressive bedding procedures; follow gradual bedding-in by repeated moderate stops during the first 100–200 km to stabilize friction properties. Inspect brake fluid, calipers and related hardware when replacing friction components to ensure safe, consistent braking performance.
