Forklift Accessories Brake Shoe Repair Kit for 1.5 Ton Forklift

Brake Shoe Repair Kit for 1.5 Ton Forklift

The brake shoe repair kit is a complete brake shoe replacement set for 1.5 ton forklifts — including new brake shoes with bonded or riveted friction linings, shoe return springs, hold-down springs, and retaining hardware. The brake shoe is the curved metal plate carrying the friction material that presses against the inside of the brake drum when the brake pedal is applied, converting hydraulic pressure into the mechanical friction that stops the forklift. A brake shoe repair kit with worn friction linings — where the material has worn down to the rivet heads or below the minimum thickness — produces metal-on-metal contact with the brake drum, scoring the drum surface and drastically reducing braking effectiveness on a machine that already needs every bit of stopping power to safely handle rated loads.

Manufactured with OEM-spec friction material bonded or riveted to precision-formed steel shoe plates, this brake shoe repair kit provides consistent friction characteristics across the operating temperature range. Always replace brake shoes as an axle set (both wheels). For brake drums and adjuster kits, browse our relevant brake components.
