The Mercury Sable Brake Rotor is rather like a bicycle wheel. Not in the way it looks - it has no tires, nor spokes. It is actually a metal disk, covered with a pad made of resin, steel wool and - in some cases - Kevlar.

As far as the way it functions and operates, however, it's similar to a bicycle. Like a push-bike, it sits between a pair of calipers.

When you push on the brake pedal, these calipers are activated; they clamp around the disk with tremendous force, slowing the wheels and stopping the vehicle. It is possible to extend your brake's useful lifespan significantly by developing better driving habits. Avoid sudden stops whenever possible; anticipate and allow the vehicle to slow itself whenever it is safe to do so. In fact, instead of rushing to get to a red light, slow up and allow the vehicle to coast. Often, you'll find the light has turned green by the time you get there. Not only will you avoid having to use the brakes, but you save wear and tear on the engine as well, because you won't have to restart the vehicle from a dead stop. It's also a good idea to downshift into a lower gear while going downhill, allowing the engine's compression to slow the vehicle.
