4707 Brake Shoe Kit | Main Brake Kits

Product Overview

4707-brake-shoe-kit is manufactured by SAITE Friction for brake shoe kit replacement in commercial vehicle fleets. Measured at 16.5 × 7 × 420 in, the part follows the original drawing envelope so it seats on the standard caliper or shoe platform without modification. Applications cover Meritor, which is why fleets standardise on one part number across mixed-brand trailers and tractors. Each batch is tested for friction coefficient, wear rate and thermal fade before it leaves the plant.

Vehicle Fitment

4707-brake-shoe-kit is listed for 1 brand and 1 model lines. Confirm by axle type and OE number before ordering — the same pad or lining can differ by axle variant.

OE Cross-Reference

1 OE number are cross-referenced to 4707-brake-shoe-kit. Send us your original part number if it is not listed — we will confirm fitment against the SAITE Friction equivalent.

Technical & Material

The shoe platform is precision-cast grey iron, with a friction lining riveted (or bonded) to the platform. Lining formulations are available in semi-metallic and NAO (non-asbestos organic) compounds. Stable friction coefficient across a wide temperature range, strong resistance to thermal fade, and drum-friendly wear that protects the brake drum surface. Supplied as a complete assembly (platform + lining) for fast, workshop-friendly replacement; the lining can also be replaced separately to reduce costs. Key dimensions: 16.5"×7" (420×180mm; inner arc 194.6/189.1mm, width 177.8mm, thickness 21/10.3mm). Manufacturing is carried out under IATF 16949 quality control, with ECE R90-compliant options available for EU-bound volumes. At 16.5 × 7 × 420 in, the friction block keeps the original envelope, so caliper or shoe clearance and the wear-sensor slot line up without shimming. The same compound is supplied against 1 brand application, with 1 OE references covering the axle variants below. Backing-plate gauge and bond strength follow the original drawing, which is what keeps edge cracking and pad migration out of service.

Installation & Maintenance

Before fitting, clean the drum and shoe contact surfaces and inspect the return springs and adjuster. Set the correct shoe-to-drum clearance, then bed in over the first 200–300 km avoiding hard braking. Replace shoes in pairs (per axle) and at the wear limit to keep braking balanced. For 4707-brake-shoe-kit, keep the old unit until the new one is seated; matching the marking avoids a second strip-down.

Ordering

Minimum order quantity 5 pallets (720 pcs). Reference price: ¥65.5 / shoe (RMB, FOB Shanghai / Ningbo; ≈ $9.8). Neutral or SAITE Friction-branded packaging available; customs documentation and CO issued on request.
