brake lining
Stopping surface material
Brake lining is the friction material attached to brake shoes or pads that presses against a rotating surface—a drum or disc—to slow or stop a vehicle.
The lining wears down over time and must be replaced: The mechanic said my brake linings were worn to the metal.
