Good day, everyone. Today, we’ll focus on a critical component in modern braking technology—Spongy Iron Powder—and its indispensable functions in brake pads manufacturing, especially within Annat Frictions’ advanced solutions.

Brake Pads Spongy Iron Powder
First, let’s clarify its core role: Spongy Iron Powder is not just an additive, but a performance driver in Brake Pads Friction Materials. Its unique porous structure (with a porosity rate of 40-60%, tested under ASTM B329 standards) enables it to optimize two key aspects of braking: heat dissipation and friction stability. During braking, pads generate temperatures up to 600°C; the porous structure of our Spongy Iron Powder acts as a “heat sink,” reducing peak temperatures by 15-20% compared to traditional iron fillers. This directly prevents brake pads from overheating, a leading cause of brake fade.

Second, it enhances the consistency of Brake Pads Mixture and Brake Pads Mixes. At Annat Frictions, we integrate Spongy Iron Powder (with a particle size of 50-150 μm, as per our proprietary specs) into the Brake Pads Formula at a dosage of 8-12% by weight. This precise ratio ensures uniform distribution in the mixture, eliminating “hot spots” in friction materials. The result? A stable coefficient of friction (COF) of 0.38-0.45 across temperature ranges (from -30°C to 600°C), which meets ECE R90 safety standards—critical for reliable braking in both urban and high-speed scenarios.
Third, it boosts durability and cost-efficiency. The high compressive strength (≥ 350 MPa) of our Spongy Iron Powder reinforces the brake pads friction materials, extending pad lifespan by 25% compared to formulations without it. Additionally, its compatibility with other components (like resin binders and abrasive particles) simplifies the mixing process, reducing production waste of brake pads mixes by 8-10%.

In summary, Spongy Iron Powder is the backbone of high-performance brake pads at Annat Frictions. It elevates heat resistance, stabilizes friction, and enhances durability—all while optimizing our brake pads formula for safety and efficiency. This is why it remains a non-negotiable element in our commitment to top-tier braking solutions.
