Backing Plate

Backing plates are often referred to as ‘brake plates’ and can be found behind the brake shoes.

Backing plates are metal plates that function as the solid foundation for drum brake. Made of steel, these plates have the wheel cylinder mounted on them to which the brake shoes are then attached. Tasked with the parental duties of the brakes, without these metal backing plates, all braking hardware attached would have nothing to grip on to.

Being fixed firmly to the backing plate, brake shoes are provided with the necessary grip and solidity to stop the vehicle via the use of friction
