Product Information

Full details

The Ferodo Brake Shoe Set (FSB4198) is designed for automotive technicians and DIY enthusiasts who prioritize safety and manufacturing precision for their vehicle's rear drum braking or parking brake system. These shoes provide consistent stopping power and reliable engagement, ensuring a stable hold when parked. One caveat is that users must verify the specific drum diameter requirements of their vehicle, as these shoes are precision-engineered for 190 mm drum setups and are not universally compatible with other braking systems.

Troubleshooting

Parking brake does not hold the vehicle effectively

Adjust the brake cable tension and ensure the drum surface is free of glaze or contaminants.

Audible grinding or squealing during braking

Check for debris trapped between the shoe and drum or ensure the shoes are properly seated.

Difficult installation or shoe dragging

Verify the drum diameter is exactly 190 mm and confirm that the adjustment mechanism is not over-tightened.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Strict adherence to quality manufacturing standards
  • Excellent fitment precision for specified 190 mm drums
  • Consistent friction characteristics for safe parking
  • Built for longevity and heat resistance

Cons

  • Specific to 190 mm diameter drum systems only
  • Requires proper technical knowledge for installation
  • Not suitable for disc brake conversions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, ensure that the drum brake mechanism is thoroughly cleaned using an approved brake cleaner before installation. The FSB4198 is strictly compatible with 190 mm drum diameters. During installation, it is critical to lubricate the contact points between the shoes and the backing plate with high-temperature brake grease to ensure smooth movement. Regularly inspect the brake return springs and adjusters to ensure even wear on the shoe linings. If the vehicle displays a 'spongy' feel or uneven parking brake engagement, re-check the clearance settings and spring tension.
