Features and Functions of Handbrakes
Stops Your Car from Rolling
Handbrakes apply pressure on your car's rear wheels and prevent it from rolling backwards. This feature is a saviour while your car moves against gravity on an inclined surface, driving uphill. Car handbrakes prevent your car from rolling down towards gravity, whether your car is at rest or in motion.
For Waiting at Traffic Signals
Instead of applying foot brakes, you may opt for handbrakes for short and sudden halts in traffic. Secondly, car handbrakes prevent your car from moving forward if it is suddenly hit from behind as the rear wheels are locked.
Keeps the Car in Position When Foot Brakes Malfunction
Handbrakes are also known as emergency brakes for a reason. It allows you to park your car when foot brakes fail or do not function properly. However, one must be cautious while applying car handbrakes as they tend to stop your rear wheels from running. Consequently, a sudden application might spin your car.
For Steep Rises and Sharp Turns
Handbrakes prevent vehicles from rolling down while they are ascending a steep slope. Drivers tend to climb uphill using an active handbrake to avoid rolling down. Another use of handbrakes in cars is for making sharp turns. This is also the reason why race car drivers pull handbrakes while making sharp and fast turns.
Working Of Handbrake
The car handbrake is designed to bypass the hydraulic braking system in the event of a failure.
When you apply the emergency brake, the metallic cable it is connected to passes through an intermediate lever, enhancing the power of the pulling. Then, comes an equalizer that splits that power evenly between the brakes.
In most vehicles, the disc or drum brakes have a connection to a mechanical lever. If it is the disc brake, the existing caliper piston is likely to have a connection to an additional lever and corkscrew.
When you pull the brake on, the lever makes the corkscrew force against the piston. If it is a drum brake, the metallic cable has a direct attachment to the lever on the brake shoes.
So, you know how handbrake works and its importance in the event of a hydraulic brake failure. But, don’t apply it when the foot brake is still operational. It will disrupt the brake’s balance and the vehicle may lose control.
Safety Measures to Follow While Using Handbrakes
Although using a car handbrake is pretty simple, a driver must remember certain points while applying them for a safe ride.
Avoid Raising the Lever Without Pressing the Button: Most drivers tend to raise the parking brake lever without pressing the button. This practice helps stop your vehicle; however, it is an ill practice. Frequently pulling up the handbrake lever without pressing a button can wear out its teeth over time. This can decrease car handbrakes’ functioning efficiency.
Use Emergency Brakes Only During Emergency: Using handbrakes frequently can wear these cables out. As a result, you will not be able to apply them when you need to park your vehicle.
Shelter Your Car in Warm Places During Winter: You may find it difficult to apply parking brakes during winter. This is solely because brake cables tend to freeze in winter. Consequently, your vehicle tends to slow down, and you cannot fully engage these brakes during emergencies. To avoid such a scenario, try keeping your vehicle in a sheltered space during winter. Also, you can opt for warming up your car before disengaging the parking brakes.
They Do Not Bring Your Car to a Sudden Stop: As you browse through the necessity of parking brakes, remember these brakes slow your car down. You cannot apply them to bring your car to a sudden halt. Car handbrakes bring your car to a gradual halt, unlike foot brakes. As car handbrakes function on rear wheels, you can ride up a steep slope with engaged brakes. This will prevent your vehicle from rolling downhill.
Note the Brake Sign: If the Brake sign reflects an instrument cluster, handbrakes are active. Therefore, you must refrain from pulling the brake lever higher. If you continue to pull up the lever, it may exert too much pressure and damage its cables.
Make Sure to Disengage Handbrakes Before Driving: A car can move with slightly active handbrakes. You must avoid practising this in usual cases, as engaged handbrakes can harm your car's engine performance and mileage. However, in certain scenarios, like driving up a hill or taking sharp turns, you can drive with parking brakes engaged.
