Brake Pad Life Calculator
Calculate how long your brake pads will last with our comprehensive calculator. Estimate brake pad lifespan based on driving habits, vehicle type, and brake pad material.
Step 1: Vehicle & Driving Information
Understanding Driving Impact
City driving with frequent stops wears brake pads faster than highway driving. Aggressive driving can reduce brake pad life by up to 50% compared to conservative driving.
Step 2: Brake Pad Specifications
About Brake Pad Materials
Ceramic pads offer longer life and less dust but are more expensive. Semi-metallic pads provide better performance but may wear faster. Organic pads are quiet but have shorter lifespan.

Brake Pad Wear Breakdown
Brake Pad Life Formula
Remaining Life = (Current Thickness – Min Thickness) × Wear Rate × Driving Factor
Brake pad life is calculated based on remaining material thickness, adjusted for driving style, conditions, and pad material wear characteristics. Regular inspection is recommended.
