ABS 2828 with Brake Drums

ABS 2828 Brake Drum Overview

The ABS 2828 is a high‑performance brake drum designed for rear suspension applications in a wide range of compact and subcompact vehicles. Its engineering focuses on durability, heat dissipation, and seamless integration with ABS (Anti‑Lock Braking System) sensors.

Key Design Features

• Material Composition: Constructed from a premium alloy steel blend that offers superior strength while maintaining lightweight characteristics. The surface is treated to resist corrosion and wear.
• Diameter & Thickness: Standard outer diameter of 203 mm with a thickness calibrated for optimal braking force distribution across the wheel hub.
• ABS Sensor Ring: Integrated sensor ring allows direct mounting of ABS modules, eliminating the need for additional adapters and ensuring accurate wheel speed detection.
• Heat Management: The drum’s internal geometry includes strategically placed venting channels that facilitate rapid heat dissipation during prolonged braking sessions.
• Compatibility: Designed to fit a broad spectrum of models, including the Renault Clio III (BR0/1, CR0/1), Modus, Grand Modus, and Dacia variants. The drum’s mounting flange aligns with standard hub dimensions for quick installation.

Performance Characteristics

The ABS 2828 brake drum delivers consistent stopping power even under high‑temperature conditions. Its robust construction resists warping, ensuring that the braking surface remains flat and true. The integrated sensor ring provides reliable wheel speed data to the vehicle’s ABS controller, enhancing safety during emergency stops.

Installation & Maintenance

Installing the ABS 2828 is straightforward:

1. Remove the existing brake drum and associated hardware.
2. Align the new drum’s mounting flange with the hub, ensuring that the sensor ring sits flush against the ABS module.
3. Screw in the retaining bolts, tightening to manufacturer specifications.
4. Reinstall the brake shoes or pads, adjusting for proper clearance.

For maintenance, inspect the drum surface regularly for signs of wear or scoring. Replace the drum if the inner diameter deviates beyond acceptable tolerances or if excessive heat damage is observed.

Applications & Vehicle Compatibility

• Renault Clio III (BR0/1, CR0/1)
• Renault Modus, Grand Modus, and Thalia models
• Dacia Duster and other compact rear‑wheel configurations
• Various European market vehicles that require a 203 mm rear drum with ABS integration

Why Choose the ABS 2828?

The combination of durability, precise heat management, and built‑in ABS compatibility makes the ABS 2828 an ideal choice for drivers seeking reliable braking performance without compromising safety. Its design ensures that the brake system remains responsive across a wide range of driving conditions.

Technical Specifications Summary
