Drum Brake Adjuster
Filter By
The brake adjuster screw is used in drum brake systems to set the clearance of the brake shoes. Your brake shoes should always be slightly in contact with your brake drum, as too much travel before engaging could cause your vehicle to not stop as well as it should. The brake adjuster screw also adjusts automatically as your brake shoes wear down using a spring loaded adjuster retainer. If your drum brake adjuster screw rusts, it may be difficult or impossible to adjust your brakes properly. If it can't be lubricated and turn smoothly, it should be replaced.
