| Subject: | Brake Pad replacement |
My RV-6 is in need of new brake pads after 120 hours. This seems a bit
pre-mature but it needs them none the less. I just looked on Vans site and
they show brake lining kit with rivets. Does this require a special rivet
device? At 30 bucks I can't surmise it would be very cheap to buy the pads
with the backing already on. Questions:
Is 120 hours sooner than normal for needing brake pads?
What do I use to rivet on the linings?
Is there a reasonable availability somewhere for complete brake pads?
Thanks

Hi Tim,
I decided to replace my pads around the 120 hour point. Could have
gotten a few more miles but at annual time it seemed most convenient.
Getting everything apart for bearing maintenance is the most time
consuming. Replacing the pads is easy and quick. The kits from Van's
contain the rivets. The tool is inexpensive from Spruce. See:

Sorry everyone, I accidentally copied a previous subject line in my
message to the list a couple of hours ago. So I'm reposting with the
proper subject line.
And thanks for the quick reply Robin (dispite my wrong subject line).
I'm leaving in 2 1/2 weeks, so maybe I'll get to hear from your friend.

Hi John,
Thanks for the info and link. I was actually just turning my tires around
so they would wear on the other side, so packing bearings and such. The
brakes are easy, but didn't plan that so now need to wait to get parts and
tools.
Thanks again.

If you do not mind spending a little extra money for the best rivet setting
tool=2C order these dies for your hand rivet squeezer.
http://www.averytools.com/p-173-die-set-for-setting-brake-rivets.aspx
I like these dies in my hand squeezer better than ANY other brake rivet too
l that I have seen. This is my opinion and someone else may have something
they like better. These dies are what work best for me. Someone else may
have something better that works for them.

| Subject: | Re: Brake Pad replacement |
Tim,
The tool comes in two models: standard and deluxe. The ad says the
deluxe model is threaded so you can assume the standard model is the
hammer (impact) type. Having used both over the years, I would recommend
the screw type. Well worth the extra $.If you break just one pad with
the hammer type, you'll know what I mean. Not that I've ever broken one
myself.......

Thanks everyone for the answers, links, and advice. I will be ordering a
toolset tomorrow along with new brake pads. I can't wait too long since I
need to be able to fly. Condition Inspection is next month so trying to get
ahead of the game.

The Rapco brake rivet tool is really good.
http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/topages/RapcoBrake.php
I like it better than the ones you hit with a hammer because it's really
easy to overset those.
