A truck owner trying to curb maintenance expenses will find affordable brake lining options. Organic brake linings are usually the cheapest since they are composed of rubber and other fibrous materials. Their performance works well for light-duty trucks and vehicles with lower braking requirements. Some budget-friendly semi-metallic brake linings are also provided by aftermarket brands. These affordable options, while not as long lasting as premium products, are acceptable for basic safety standards making them a wise choice for frugal vehicle owners
