Brake Drum: Testing and Inspection
Inspect drum for cleanliness. Check wear of its braking surface by measuring its inside diameter.
Brake drum ID
Standard : 200 mm (7.87 inch)
Service limit: 202 mm (7.95 inch)
Whenever brake drums are removed, they should be thoroughly cleaned and inspected for cracks, scores, deep 9 grooves.
Cracked, Scored, or Grooved Drum
A cracked drum is unsafe for further service and must be replaced. Do not attempt to weld a cracked drum.
Smooth up any slight scores. Heavy or extensive scoring will cause excessive brake lining wear and it will probably be necessary to resurface drum
braking surface.
If brake linings are slightly worn and drum is grooved, drum should be polished with fine emery cloth but should not be turned.
NOTE: When drum is removed, visually inspect wheel cylinder for brake fluid leakage. Correct leaky point, if any.
