Advantages of No Copper Formula
- Environmental Compliance
- Brake Pads Mixes replace copper with ceramic fibers and steel wool, reducing copper emissions by 100% to meet California SB 346 and EU Regulation EC No 1907/2006 standards.
- Enhanced Durability
- The brake pads friction materials incorporate aramid fibers and boron nitride, achieving 20% longer lifespan than conventional copper-based pads under heavy-load conditions.
- Stable Performance
- Maintains consistent friction coefficient (±5% variation) across extreme temperatures (-50°C to 750°C), critical for long-haul truck braking safety.
- Reduced Noise & Vibration
- Optimized brake pads formula with damping shims lowers noise levels to <75 dB at 80 km/h braking, minimizing driver fatigue.
Storage & Packaging Guidelines
- Packaging:
- Individually wrapped in corrosion-resistant PET film.
- Stacked on reinforced pallets with moisture-resistant barriers (max 55% RH).
- Storage:
- Temperature: -10°C–30°C in UV-protected warehouses.
- Avoid direct ground contact; use wooden pallets with 10 cm clearance.
Key Components in the Formula
The Brake Pads Mixture comprises:
- Friction Modifiers: Graphite (15–18%), zirconium silicate (10–12%)
- Structural Reinforcements: Ceramic fibers (30–35%), steel wool (8–10%)
- Binders: Modified phenolic resin (12–15%)
This no copper brake pads formula is engineered for heavy-duty trucks, ensuring compliance, reliability, and environmental stewardship.
