Hello, colleagues and partners. As a professional in the braking industry, Annat Frictions has always focused on optimizing Brake Pads Friction Materials—and today, we’ll highlight the vital role of Brake Pads Steel Fiber in this process.

Brake Pads Steel Fiber
When developing a high-performance Brake Pads Formula, brake pads Steel Fiber is far more than a simple additive; it’s a performance-driven core. Our R&D data shows that this fiber has a tensile strength of 1,300–1,900 MPa and an elastic modulus of over 210 GPa, which directly solves the problem of poor structural stability in traditional brake pads friction materials. During intense braking, when temperatures can reach 650°C, brake pads Steel Fiber’s thermal conductivity (48–52 W/m·K) is 3–4 times higher than organic fibers, ensuring even heat dissipation in the Brake Pads Mixture and effectively avoiding brake fade caused by local overheating.
Brake Shoes Steel Fiber
In Brake Pads Mixes and brake pads mixture, brake pads Steel Fiber delivers three key advantages. First, it boosts wear resistance: adding 4–9% volume fraction of Steel Fiber to the brake pads mixture reduces pad wear rate by 28–35% and extends service life by up to 30%, compared to fiber-free mixes. Second, it stabilizes friction performance: our tested friction coefficient remains 0.36–0.46 across speeds of 40–120 km/h and temperatures of -20°C–600°C, eliminating the “soft braking” issue from inconsistent friction. Third, it enhances impact resistance: with a melting point exceeding 1,480°C, the fiber keeps the brake pads friction materials intact even under sudden temperature shocks, critical for commercial and high-performance vehicles.
Car Brake Pads Semi Metallic Formula
At Annat Frictions, we strictly control the brake pads Steel Fiber specifications in our brake pads formula—fiber length is fixed at 0.6–3.2 mm, and aspect ratio at 22–55—to ensure every batch of brake pads mixes meets top-tier safety and durability standards. Simply put, brake pads Steel Fiber is the backbone that makes reliable braking possible.
