Key Advantages
- Reduced Dust & Environmental Impact:
- The Brake Shoes Formula minimizes brake dust emissions by 30–40% compared to traditional metallic mixes, aligning with regulations like the EU’s REACH standards.
- Free from copper and asbestos, ensuring eco-friendliness.
- Balanced Performance:
- Combines the thermal stability of metallic components with the smooth braking of organic Brake Shoes Mixes, ideal for frequent stop-and-go driving in urban or highway conditions.
- Extended Lifespan:
- Reinforced ceramic particles in the brake shoes mixture reduce wear rates by 25% compared to conventional semi-metallic pads, lowering maintenance costs for fleet operators.
- Compatibility:
- Suitable for drum brake systems in medium- to heavy-duty trucks, including dump trucks, cargo transporters, and long-haul trailers.
Packaging and Storage
- Rust Prevention: Coated with zinc-based anti-corrosion layers to withstand humid environments.
- Packaging:
- Individually wrapped in moisture-resistant, recyclable polyethylene film.
- Stacked in reinforced wooden crates with desiccant packs for bulk shipments.
- Storage Conditions:
- Store in dry, well-ventilated areas (humidity <65%) at 0–30°C.
- Avoid stacking above 1.5 meters to prevent deformation.
Applications
Designed for trucks operating in:
- Urban delivery routes with frequent braking.
- Long-haul transportation requiring consistent performance.
- Regions with strict environmental regulations on particulate emissions.
The Low Metallic Formula’s brake shoes friction materials meet ISO 9001 and SAE J2928 standards, ensuring reliability and compliance.
