EXPANDING LOCK
ACCESSORY KIT FOR HANDBRAKE SHOES
Functionality:
- Adjusts to the wear of the shoes to ensure the right friction and hold power
- Locks the shoes in “hold” position to secure the vehicle from unintended rolling
Why changing and not cleaning:
- Material wear of the lock could lead to reduced functionality; rolling of the car
- Due to wear of the part adjuster nut might not adjust correctly
Cleaning of the parts for re-use might lead to corrosion; handbrake can get stuck
Car manufacturers like BMW recommend replacing the expanding locks every 48 months (if not worn earlier) and with every change of handbrake shoes.

In Brakebook you will find the corresponding expanding lock with each shoe kit.

An overview of the corresponding expanding locks will be included in each handbrake shoe kit packaging.
