PURPOSE: A brake pad indicator system is provided to remove uneasiness of a driver and to improve the reliability on the safety of a vehicle by continuously showing the wear state of a brake pad. CONSTITUTION: A displacement sensor(5) is installed on a base plate(3) of a brake pad(1). A sensing rod(7) of the displacement sensor contacts a brake disk(9) and slides depending on the wear of a pad(10). The sensing rod moves while contracting a spring(13) depending on the wear of the pad. An indicator(17) is connected to the displacement sensor. The wear state of the pad is indicated by the displacement indicator. Therefore, a driver easily observes the wear state of the brake pad through the indicator.
