It depends if 4 WD or just FWD and what year model Generally: FRONT: Brake pad minimum thickness 3.0 mm (0.118 inch) Brake pad maximum taper wear (in any direction) 3.0 mm (0.118 inch) Brake disc minimum thickness (disc-drum system) 22 mm (0.866 inch) Brake disc minimum thickness (4-wheel disc brake system) 24 mm (0.944 inch) REAR: Brake Pad Brake pad minimum thickness 3.0 mm (0.118 inch) Brake pad maximum taper wear (in any direction) 3.0 mm (0.118 inch) Brake Disc Brake disc minimum thickness 11.0 mm (0.433 inch)
It depends on the vehicle type, but generally - when your brake pad thickness is 2 mm it is time to change the brake pad.
Just buy new brake pads.
The Mazda 3 is 2mm, probably the same - 2mm
about 5mm then after that they will get hot and squeak
11mm according to Bentley Manual
Minimum disc thickness vented front 24.6mm .Minimum disc thickness rear 16.6mm. min pad thickness front & rear 1mm
The minimum brake pad thickness for a Ford Fusion is typically around 3 mm. It's essential to check your vehicle's owner manual for specific recommendations, as these may vary by model year. Regular inspection is important to ensure optimal braking performance and safety. If the pads are below the minimum thickness, they should be replaced promptly.
The brake rotor minimum thickness is .060 This applies to either the 2.3CL or 3.0CL, front or rear rotors. Seems awfully thin for a brake rotor, doesn't it? Other sources say .83 in. (21mm)front, .35 in. (9mm) rear [AcuraFixerDave] That rotor thickness is probably the BRAKE PAD thickness minimum, not including the steel backing plate [AcuraFixerDave].
It is the thickness of brake pads when they are new form factory.
For a 2003 Honda Accord, the minimum brake pad thickness is typically around 2/32 of an inch. It's important to replace the brake pads when they reach this thickness to ensure safe braking performance. Regular inspections and maintenance can help prevent excessive wear and potential damage to the brake system. Always consult the vehicle's manual or a professional mechanic for specific recommendations.
I would replce at about 4mm to keep the pad from comming off the backing plate and causing damage.
