ABSTRACT:
Arcuate brake lining apparatus for use with an arcuate brake drum includes a brake shoe table having an inner edge and an outer edge. There is an outer lip on the outer edge of the brake shoe table. A gripper is detachably attached to the brake shoe table. An inner lip is provided on the gripper. There is at least one brake lining segment having a braking surface configured for engaging an arcuate brake drum. The at least one brake lining segment has an inner edge and an outer edge, the inner edge being configured for engaging the inner lip of the gripper, and the outer edge being configured for engaging the outer lip of the brake shoe table. In the method of using the arcuate brake lining apparatus, when the at least one brake lining segment is to be replaced, the gripper is removed from the brake shoe table, and the at least one brake lining segment is moved in a direction from the outer edge toward the inner edge for disengaging the outer edge from the outer lip.
