3-Ton Left Side Brake Shoe for Mitsubishi Forklifts
This is a 3-ton left-side (driver side) brake shoe set designed as a direct OEM replacement for Mitsubishi FD30, FD35, FGC30, FGC35, and equivalent 3-ton internal combustion forklifts equipped with drum-type front brake systems. The set includes the primary (leading) and secondary (trailing) shoes for the left axle position, manufactured with high-friction semi-metallic lining material bonded and riveted to precision-stamped steel backing plates. The lining compound is formulated for consistent friction coefficient across the operating temperature range of 3-ton forklift duty cycles, delivering reliable stopping power whether empty or handling a full 3,000 kg load.
The brake shoes feature an asbestos-free organic-metallic friction compound with controlled porosity that provides excellent heat dissipation and resistance to glazing during repeated braking. The steel backing plates are CNC-stamped to match the Mitsubishi OEM arc radius specifications, ensuring full drum contact from the first stop. Each shoe is clearly marked as primary or secondary with the position indicator stamped into the backing plate to prevent installation confusion with right-side shoes. The rivet pattern uses high-strength brass rivets for corrosion resistance in the damp, dusty environment behind the forklift wheel.
Position-specific left-side replacement for Mitsubishi FD30, FD35, FGC30, FGC35, FHD30, and FHD35 3-ton forklift models. This is the LEFT SIDE set only — the right-side set must be ordered separately for a complete axle service, though best practice is to replace both sides simultaneously for balanced braking. Inspect the brake drums for scoring, heat checking, or wear exceeding the maximum diameter specification before installing new shoes. For compatible right-side shoes, brake drums, wheel cylinders, and DOT brake fluid, visit our Forklift Brake Parts section. For Mitsubishi service specifications, refer to Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks.
