Advantages of High Metallic Brake Pads

  1. Superior Heat Resistance
    • The Brake Pads Mixes containing steel fibers and copper particles ensure stable friction output even at 800°C, reducing brake fade during prolonged downhill braking.
  2. Extended Service Life
    • Reinforced brake pads friction materials provide 2x longer lifespan than semi-metallic counterparts under heavy loads (tested at 40-ton GVW).
  3. Enhanced Braking Power
    • High metal content improves initial bite response, achieving 15% shorter stopping distances in fully loaded trucks.
  4. Cost Efficiency
    • Recycled metal components (60–70% reclaimed steel) lower production costs while maintaining OEM performance standards.

Storage & Packaging Guidelines

  • Packaging:
    • Individually wrapped in anti-corrosion VCI paper.
    • Stacked on reinforced wooden pallets (max 20 layers).
  • Storage:
    • Temperature: -10°C–35°C in low-humidity warehouses (<55% RH).
    • Keep away from acidic/alkaline substances to prevent metal oxidation.

Formula Composition Breakdown

The brake pads formula combines:

  • Metallic Matrix: Steel fibers (45–50%), copper powder (15–20%)
  • Friction Modifiers: Graphite (8–10%), barite (12–15%)
  • Binders: High-temp phenolic resin (10–12%)

This brake pads mixture is optimized for mining trucks, freight carriers, and other heavy-duty vehicles requiring uncompromising braking reliability.
