Part of Zimmermann’s renowned range, these handbrake shoes are engineered with cutting-edge materials and German craftsmanship to ensure strong holding power, smooth engagement, and long-lasting performance — perfectly complementing Porsche’s high-performance braking systems.
Developed using OES-grade friction compounds made from up to 25 premium materials, Zimmermann handbrake shoes deliver the ultimate balance between wear resistance and comfort. Their performance consistency makes them ideal for daily driving, restoration projects, and spirited motoring alike.
What They Do
Zimmermann Handbrake Shoes are designed to provide
reliable parking and hill-hold performance by locking the rear wheels securely
when engaged.
Their advanced friction lining ensures stable braking performance, low wear, and quiet operation, making them ideal for both road use and long-term reliability in Porsche 911 applications.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Strong
Holding Force: Securely locks wheels even on steep gradients.
- Precision
Fitment: Engineered to match Porsche 911 rear drum dimensions
perfectly.
- Quiet
Operation: Low noise during engagement and release.
- Long
Service Life: Heat-resistant compounds minimize wear and glazing.
- ECE
R90 Certified: Compliant with European braking safety standards.
- Corrosion
Protection: Coated metal surfaces resist rust and environmental wear.
- Smooth Engagement: Progressive grip for predictable, stable performance.
Zimmermann’s precision manufacturing process — with tightly controlled pressure and temperature during production — ensures every shoe delivers consistent and reliable braking power.
Why Handbrake Shoes Fail
Over time, handbrake shoes experience frictional wear and
exposure to environmental elements that can impact their performance.
Common Causes of Failure:
- Normal
Friction Wear: Gradual loss of lining thickness reduces holding
strength.
- Glazing
or Overheating: Heat buildup from prolonged use can harden the
friction material.
- Contamination:
Dust, oil, or road debris can lower friction and cause slippage.
- Corrosion:
Moisture exposure can rust metal components or backing plates.
- Aging Materials: Over time, friction compounds can crack or lose bonding strength.
Zimmermann’s range mitigates these issues with advanced material technology and protective coatings, providing longer service life and dependable grip under all conditions.
Why They Should Be Replaced
Replacing worn or damaged handbrake shoes restores reliable parking control, driver confidence, and vehicle safety.
- Benefits of Replacing with Zimmermann Handbrake Shoes:
- Restores Secure Holding Power: Prevents rolling on inclines and ensures consistent handbrake performance.
- Improves Safety: Maintains braking reliability in emergency and parking scenarios.
- Reduces Noise and Vibration: Provides smooth, quiet operation.
- Certified Quality: ECE R90-approved for proven braking performance.
- Extends Component Life: Prevents excessive wear on drums and cables.
- Enhanced Durability: Resistant to heat, corrosion, and friction degradation.

The hand-brake expander bow is a small but vital component in the parking-brake system. When it becomes worn, bent or corroded, you may experience:
• Less holding force, vehicle may roll despite hand-brake applied
• Hand-brake shoes not fully engaging or fully releasing, leading to drag or overheating
• Uneven parking-brake performance between rear wheels
• Increased wear on cables, shoes, or other components due to mis-actuation
Replacing this bow restores correct geometry, smooth release and reliable holding - ensuring safety and preserving the value of your classic Porsche.
When to replace:
• Hand-brake lever needs excessive travel to hold the vehicle
• Original bow is bent, corroded or missing
• Parking-brake shoes were replaced or the mechanism was disassembled during service
• You’re restoring or maintaining a high-value classic and want all brake components to be correct specification

Complete fitting kit contains:
Castle nut, Expanding bow, Adjusting screw, Return spring, Concave washer, Compression spring, Roll pin, Cotter pin, Countersunk-head screw, Support bush.
• Position on Vehicle: Rear suspension area - the handbrake shoe retaining and adjustment components on the rear brake system (typically rear disc/hub assembly).
• Applications: Ideal for when you’re replacing or servicing the rear handbrake shoes, or when original retaining hardware is corroded, missing, or the handbrake mechanism is rebuilt or overhauled.
The handbrake system relies on a large number of small components - if any are worn, missing or incorrectly fitted, the handbrake may not engage properly, may fail to hold the vehicle, or may adjust poorly. Using a complete kit ensures all components are new, correct and matched, preventing future issues.
When and why to replace:
• When the rear handbrake shoe hardware shows visible corrosion, fatigue or missing parts.
• During handbrake shoe replacement or rear brake work when access to the assembly is available.
• If the handbrake feels weak, uneven or fails to hold.
• On high-mileage or older vehicles where original hardware has been reused many times and may be compromised.

Porsche Handbrake Shoes | Design911 Precision Braking Components for Secure Parking & Performance Reliability
Handbrake shoes are a vital part of your Porsche’s parking brake system, providing the mechanical grip needed to hold your vehicle securely when parked. Unlike the main braking system, handbrake shoes operate independently, engaging the inner drum surface of the rear brake discs or hubs to lock the wheels in place. Over time, friction material wears down, and performance declines — leading to reduced holding power or uneven engagement. Replacing your handbrake shoes ensures consistent, reliable operation and full parking safety.
At Design911, we stock a comprehensive range of handbrake shoes designed for precision fitment, high temperature resistance, and dependable performance. Each component is crafted using premium friction materials and durable steel backing to deliver long-lasting grip and stability. Ideal for routine servicing, performance preparation, or full restorations, our range ensures your Porsche retains its precision-engineered braking feel and security.
What Do Handbrake Shoes Do?
Handbrake shoes provide the friction necessary to hold your Porsche stationary by pressing against the brake drum or disc hub.
Core Functions:
• Create static friction to lock the rear wheels when parked.
• Provide secure holding power on inclines and uneven terrain.
• Operate independently from the main hydraulic brake system.
• Maintain safety during parking and emergency stops.
• Ensure compliance with vehicle safety and MOT standards.
Well-maintained handbrake shoes are essential for effective parking control and peace of mind in all driving conditions.
Why Do Handbrake Shoes Fail or Degrade?
Handbrake shoes are constantly exposed to heat, moisture, and friction, causing gradual wear and reduced efficiency.
Common Causes of Failure Include:
• Worn friction material reducing braking hold.
• Corrosion or rust from moisture exposure.
• Glazing from excessive heat or prolonged engagement.
• Contamination from brake fluid, dirt, or oil.
• Uneven wear due to improper adjustment or cable tension.
When these symptoms appear — such as weak holding power, grinding noises, or excessive lever travel — replacement is essential to restore safety and performance.
Why Replace or Upgrade Your Porsche Handbrake Shoes?
Replacing worn or contaminated handbrake shoes restores full parking brake efficiency and reliability. Design911’s precision-engineered shoes are manufactured to meet Porsche performance standards, ensuring smooth engagement, consistent grip, and long service life.
Key Benefits:
• Restores secure parking and handbrake function.
• Improves grip, performance, and brake balance.
• Constructed with premium friction materials for heat stability.
• Direct-fit compatibility with Porsche braking systems.
• Corrosion-resistant components for extended durability.
• Ideal for servicing, track preparation, or full restoration projects.
Design911’s Porsche handbrake shoes deliver the
perfect blend of precision, safety, and durability — ensuring your Porsche
remains secure whether parked or in performance use.
