Automotive Brake Shims Market to Expand at 5.6% CAGR, Projected to Hit USD 604.5 Million by 2033 | FMI Reports

Automotive Brake Shims Market

Automotive Brake Shims Market

The global automotive brake shims market, valued at USD 315.2 million in 2018, is projected to reach USD 349.0 million by 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% from 2023 to 2033, reaching USD 604.5 million by 2033, according to Future Market Insights (FMI).

Automotive brake shims are thin, insulating components positioned between brake pads and calipers to minimize noise, vibration, and harshness during braking. With the rise of electric vehicles (EVs) emphasizing quieter and more comfortable braking, demand for specialized brake shims is increasing, especially for noise reduction in regenerative braking systems. Manufacturers are innovating to produce durable shims compatible with EV systems, which are increasingly important in the aftermarket sector.

A shift toward sustainable materials, like recycled rubber and bio-based composites, is emerging within the industry. These materials not only reduce waste and emissions but also enhance shim durability and performance, making them suitable for the environmentally conscious automotive industry.
