The brake drum on the Nissan Nv200 is the rotating cast-iron bowl that the Nv200 drum brake shoes press against to slow your vehicle. Mounted to the rear axle hub of your Nissan Nv200, it spins with the wheel and provides the friction surface that the shoes contact under braking. Unlike brake rotors, which can be visually inspected from outside the wheel on many Nv200 vehicles, Nissan Nv200 brake drums fully enclose the shoe assembly, which means wear and damage often goes unnoticed until braking performance on the Nissan Nv200 is noticeably affected.
Standard OEM-Grade Drums for the Nissan Nv200
Standard OEM-grade cast-iron drums for the Nissan Nv200 are manufactured to the original equipment diameter, wall thickness, and surface finish specification for your Nv200. They are the direct replacement for the factory Nv200 drum with no modification required.
Coated Brake Drums for the Nissan Nv200
Coated Nissan Nv200 brake drums feature a corrosion-resistant coating applied to the external drum surfaces of your Nv200, the hat section, outer wall, and wheel mounting face. Surface rust is a common issue on Nissan Nv200 drum brake vehicles in US, particularly during periods of non-use in winter when moisture and salt collect inside the Nv200 wheel well. A coated drum on your Nissan Nv200 resists surface rust that can transfer to the wheel mounting face, making future drum removal significantly easier at the next Nv200 brake service.
Nissan Nv200 brake drum replacement requires matching the correct inner diameter, wall thickness, bolt circle, hub bore, and drum offset for your Nv200. Errors in any of these dimensions produce incorrect shoe-to-drum clearance, uneven wear, and braking problems on the Nissan Nv200. Our vehicle selector eliminates those risks by confirming the correct drum for the Nissan Nv200 exact year, make, model, and axle. Coated Nv200 drum options are available for vehicles with heavy salt exposure.
How long do brake drums last on a Nissan Nv200?
Nissan Nv200 brake drums typically last 150,000 to 200,000 kilometres with periodic resurfacing, significantly longer than disc brake rotors on the Nv200. Each resurfacing removes material from the Nv200 drum and reduces wall thickness. Once the Nissan Nv200 drum reaches its maximum allowable inner diameter, it must be replaced rather than turned again.
Should I replace brake drums on my Nissan Nv200 in pairs?
Yes. Replace both Nissan Nv200 drums on the same axle to maintain balanced braking. Drums of different inner diameters on the Nv200 create uneven friction forces, causing the Nissan Nv200 to pull to the fresher-drum side during braking.
Should I replace drums and shoes at the same time on my Nissan Nv200?
Yes, it is strongly recommended for the Nissan Nv200. New shoes on a scored or out-of-round Nv200 drum wear unevenly from day one. New Nissan Nv200 drums with old shoes that have worn to match the old drum surface will contact the new bore incorrectly. Replacing both together on the Nv200 ensures proper break-in and maximum service life from both components.
