Introduction to Truck Brake Pads with No Copper Mixture
No Copper brake pads mixture represents a breakthrough in brake pads friction materials, designed for heavy-duty trucks to deliver high-performance braking while eliminating copper and other environmentally harmful components. This brake pads formula utilizes advanced substitutes like ceramic fibers, steel wool, and organic binders, ensuring compliance with global eco-regulations and enhancing durability. Below is a comprehensive overview of its technical specifications, advantages, and storage guidelines.
Technical Parameters of No Copper brake pads mixes
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Friction Coefficient (μ) | 0.38–0.48 (stable at 0–650°C) |
| Operating Temperature | -30°C to 650°C |
| Density | 2.5–3.0 g/cm³ |
| Thickness | 10–25 mm (customizable) |
| Shear Strength | ≥4.0 MPa |
| Noise Level | ≤65 dB (ultra-low noise design) |
Note: Parameters vary based on specific truck models (e.g., Volvo, MAN, DAF) and OEM requirements.
Advantages of No Copper Brake Pads Mixture
- Environmental Compliance
- Zero copper content, meeting regulations like California’s SB 346 and EU Directive 2021/XXX.
- Reduces water and soil contamination by eliminating heavy metals.
- Enhanced Braking Performance
- Brake pads friction materials maintain consistent friction under extreme loads, preventing fade during prolonged braking.
- Ceramic-steel hybrid formula minimizes rotor wear, extending disc lifespan by 20–30%.
- User Comfort
- Optimized brake pads mixes incorporate vibration-damping layers, reducing noise to ≤65 dB.
- Low dust generation improves air quality and reduces wheel maintenance.
- Versatility
- Compatible with trucks (e.g., DAF CF95, IVECO), trailers, and mining vehicles.
Packaging and Storage Guidelines
- Packaging:
- Vacuum-sealed aluminum foil bags + reinforced wooden crates for moisture and impact resistance.
- Labels include OEM codes (e.g., WVA29090, 29067) and certifications (IATF16949, ECE-R90).
- Storage:
- Temperature: 5–35°C; Humidity: ≤55%.
- Avoid stacking over 5 layers to prevent deformation.
Applications
The brake pads formula is ideal for:
- Heavy-duty trucks operating in eco-sensitive areas (e.g., ports, urban logistics).
- High-temperature environments like mining and construction sites.
For OEM customization or bulk orders, consult supplier catalogs with detailed compliance reports.
This No Copper mixture balances regulatory compliance, performance, and sustainability, positioning it as a leading choice for modern commercial vehicles.
