Key Advantages
- Superior Durability
- The Brake Pads Mixture combines ceramic fibers (30–35%), aramid pulp (8–10%), and graphite-reinforced phenolic resin, reducing wear rates by 25% compared to semi-metallic alternatives.
- Enhanced Heat Resistance
- Stable friction coefficient up to 700°C prevents brake fade during prolonged downhill braking in heavy trucks.
- Noise & Vibration Control
- Proprietary brake pads friction materials dampen high-frequency vibrations, maintaining noise levels below 75 dB at full-load braking.
- Corrosion Protection
- Metal-free composition eliminates galvanic corrosion, extending rotor lifespan by 40% in salt-spray environments.
Storage & Packaging Specifications
- Packaging:
- Individually wrapped in anti-oxidation film, sealed in moisture-proof aluminum foil bags.
- Stacked on reinforced wooden pallets (max 3 layers) with edge protectors.
- Storage:
- Temperature: 5°C–30°C in UV-protected warehouses.
- Relative humidity: <55% (monitored via built-in humidity cards).
Formula Composition Breakdown
The brake pads formula comprises three core layers:
- Friction Layer: Ceramic fibers + boron nitride (heat dissipation)
- Intermediate Layer: Aramid pulp + rubber particles (vibration absorption)
- Backing Plate: Glass-fiber-reinforced composite (impact resistance)
This optimized brake pads mix meets FMVSS-121 standards for commercial vehicles while reducing particulate emissions by 60%.
