Burgerman Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I think he's refferring to the backing plates that go on the back of the pads? I got new pads the other day and they squeal like all buggery, the mechanic said he can get some in from japan that would cost about $60 or so. Which reminds me I gotta call him and find out if they've arrived yet.

GTAAAH Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Might just be that they weren't properly bedded in, i think it's only the older asbestos (?) pads that squeaked because of what they were made of. Non bedded in/not properly bedded in brakes = squeeeeak Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172724-i-need-screach-plates-for-1996-skyline-breaks-asap-help-me/#findComment-3179175 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluey33 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Shims are cheaper then pads... Buy them first. I tried everything, then got anti squeal shims and it went away.

The 'squeeler plates' are called shims. You can buy Anti-Squeal Paste to help keep your brakes quiet. Works a treat. And to all fellow SAUers, the things that make your car slow down are 'brakes'. If a plate falls onto the kitchen floor, it 'breaks'.

RANDY Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hi dude. Please don't use caps. It is hard to read and implies that you're yelling. Amen! The 'squeeler plates' are called shims. You can buy Anti-Squeal Paste to help keep your brakes quiet. Works a treat. And where would we find such items? I think i'd like to give this a go. Sometimes mine squeal badly, sometimes they don't make a damn sound! =-/ And to all fellow SAUers, the things that make your car slow down are 'brakes'. If a plate falls onto the kitchen floor, it 'breaks'. Double Amen!

Sometimes mine squeal badly, sometimes they don't make a damn sound! =-/ Heya Steve. I use CRC Anti-Squeal Paste. It's orange goo in a bottle with a nozzle like you'd see on a tube of silicone. I found it at Auto-One in the same place you find CRC Brakekleen, CRC Carbycleaner, etc. Just keep an eye out for a small orange bottle. Slap it everywhere you like But the best place is between the pad and the shim. It's super sticky and doesn't wash off clothing. It's about $10 or $15 I think. I guess it just stops any noise caused by the shim vibrating against the pad - ie. squealing. It made my (otherwise universally noisy) RB74 pads completely silent.

12VES Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 That anti-squeal paste is good stuff and works a treat if you have shims or backing plates on your brake pads. A few other things to consider are that alot of brake pads have an audible warning built in to let you know when the pads are getting low. This usually consists of a piece of metal that rubs on the disc rotor when the pads are low. This can sometimes be bent during installation and cause it to prematurely rub on the rotor causing an audible sqeal. Another thing to consider is the high copper/metal content in the pad which will also cause squealing.
