Disc Brake Backing Plate
A disc brake backing plate is a component of a vehicle's brake system that is located behind the brake rotor. It is a metal plate that functions as a shield, protecting the brake components from dust, dirt, and debris while driving. Without the backing plate, debris can reach the brake rotor and possibly cause obstructions between the brake pads and rotors during braking, resulting in poor performance or even brake failure.
