Introduction to Truck Brake Pads with No-Asbestos Mixture
NAO brake pads mixture represents a cutting-edge advancement in brake pads friction materials, designed for heavy-duty trucks requiring reliable braking performance and environmental compliance. This brake pads formula replaces asbestos with synthetic fibers, ceramic compounds, and organic binders, ensuring safety and durability while meeting global regulatory standards. Below is a technical breakdown, key benefits, and storage guidelines for this innovative friction material.
Technical Parameters of NAO brake pads mixes
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Friction Coefficient (μ) | 0.35–0.45 (stable at 0–700°C) |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to 700°C |
| Density | 2.4–2.8 g/cm³ |
| Thickness | 8–20 mm (customizable) |
| Shear Strength | ≥3.8 MPa |
| Noise Level | ≤70 dB (low-noise design) |
Note: Parameters vary based on formulations for specific truck models (e.g., Volvo, MAN, Mercedes-Benz).
Advantages of NAO brake pads mixture
- Environmental Safety
- Free from asbestos and heavy metals, complying with REACH and RoHS regulations.
- Produces minimal brake dust, reducing environmental contamination.
- Enhanced Performance
- Brake pads friction materials maintain stable friction coefficients across extreme temperatures, preventing brake fade.
- Low metallic content minimizes rotor wear, extending the lifespan of braking systems.
- User Comfort
- Optimized brake pads mixes reduce vibration and noise (<70 dB) through advanced damping technology.
- Versatility
- Compatible with trucks, trailers, and buses (e.g., Volvo FH 16, MAN TGX).
Packaging and Storage Guidelines
- Packaging:
- Sealed moisture-proof bags + reinforced cartons for bulk shipping.
- Labels include part numbers (e.g., WVA29174, 29087) and certifications (IATF16949, E-mark).
- Storage:
- Temperature: 10–30°C; Humidity: ≤60%.
- Avoid direct sunlight and corrosive environments.
Applications
The brake pads formula is ideal for:
- Heavy-duty trucks (Volvo, Scania, Mercedes-Benz Actros).
- High-load scenarios (e.g., cargo trailers, mining vehicles).
For OEM customization or technical specifications, refer to supplier catalogs.
This NAO mixture balances performance, safety, and sustainability, making it a preferred choice in modern truck braking systems.
