Hino Brake linings for trucks
At Hino Rive-Sud and Hino Drummondville, we know that the performance of your brakes is essential to the safety of your fleet. Our genuine Hino brake linings are designed to offer stable friction, long service life and perfect compatibility with your drum brake systems.
Function of Brake linings
Hino brake linings apply friction force to the drum during braking, effectively reducing vehicle speed. They are essential for :
✅ Controlling the vehicle in any situation
⚠️ Ensure constant braking distance
⛽ Extend drum life
Types of truck braking systems :
Drum brakes → linings + drum

Disc brakes → pads + disc

🔧 Composition of a drum brake Light Bulbs
Brake lining: Generates friction against the drum
Brake shoe: supports the lining and presses it onto the drum
Brake drum: Attached to the wheel, receives the friction
Pressure reducer or wheel cylinder: activates pressure (pneumatic or hydraulic)
⚖️ Precise assembly ensures stable, safe braking.

Do you have any questions about Hino brake pads?
Why choose original Hino brake linings rather than aftermarket parts?
Genuine Hino brake linings are designed specifically for Hino trucks. They offer superior heat resistance, minimal wear, optimum braking stability and protection for your brake drums. Aftermarket parts may not fit perfectly, resulting in premature wear and mechanical noise.
How often should brake linings be inspected?
We recommend inspecting brake linings for wear every 5,000 km, and checking their visual condition daily before setting off. Regular preventive maintenance prolongs brake system life and reduces the risk of failure.
What are the signs of a worn or defective brake lining?
Here are some signs to look out for:
Metallic or shrill noise when braking
Vibration or uneven braking
Loss of braking efficiency
Burning smell after a sudden descent or stop
These symptoms require immediate inspection.
Can I replace the Hino brake pads myself?
Brake lining replacement requires specialized tools and in-depth technical knowledge. To ensure your safety, we recommend that you call on our certified technicians at Hino South Shore or Hino Drummondville.
Do Hino fittings comply with safety standards?
Yes, all original Hino brake linings are ECE-certified and even more strictly tested to Hino’s in-house standards, ensuring performance, safety and longevity.
