Key Advantages
- Health & Environmental Safety
- The Brake Pads Mixes eliminate carcinogenic asbestos, reducing respiratory risks for workers and end-users.
- Complies with EU Regulation No 1907/2006 (REACH) and RoHS standards.
- Enhanced Durability
- Reinforced with ceramic fibers (20–25%) and aramid pulp (8–10%) in the brake pads friction materials, achieving 15% longer lifespan than conventional pads.
- Stable Performance
- Maintains consistent friction coefficient across temperature ranges (-30°C to 600°C), preventing brake fade during prolonged use.
- Low Dust & Noise
- Optimized brake pads formula reduces dust generation by 40% and eliminates high-frequency squeal through vibration-damping additives.
Storage & Packaging Guidelines
- Packaging:
- Sealed in moisture-proof aluminum foil bags with desiccant packets.
- Outer cartons labeled with “Asbestos-Free” and hazard symbols compliant with GHS standards.
- Storage:
- Temperature: 5°C–30°C in dry, ventilated areas.
- Avoid direct sunlight; maximum stacking height: 6 layers.
- Shelf life: 24 months from production date.
Formula Composition
The Brake Pads Mixture comprises:
- Friction Modifiers: Graphite (10–12%), silica (6–8%)
- Binders: Phenolic resin (12–15%)
- Reinforcements: Ceramic fibers, aramid pulp
- Fillers: Baryte powder (18–22%) for density optimization
This brake pads formula ensures balanced heat dissipation, wear resistance, and eco-compliance for passenger and commercial vehicles.
