Introduction to Truck Brake Pads with No Metallic Mixture
No Metallic brake pads mixture represents a groundbreaking innovation in brake pads friction materials, specifically engineered for heavy-duty trucks to deliver superior braking performance while eliminating metallic components. This brake pads formula replaces traditional metal fibers with advanced ceramic compounds, aramid fibers, and organic binders, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and reducing wear on braking systems. Below is a comprehensive overview of its technical specifications, advantages, and storage guidelines.
Technical Parameters of No metallic 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 | 2.2–2.6 g/cm³ |
| Thickness | 10–25 mm (customizable) |
| Shear Strength | ≥3.5 MPa |
| Noise Level | ≤65 dB (ultra-low noise design) |
Note: Adjustments to the brake pads formula are available for specific truck models (e.g., Volvo FH, Mercedes Actros, Scania R-series).
Advantages of No metallic brake pads mixture
- Environmental and Regulatory Compliance
- Free from metallic particles (e.g., copper, brass), aligning with global “low-metallic” and zero-heavy-metal mandates such as REACH and RoHS.
- Produces minimal brake dust, reducing contamination in urban and industrial environments.
- Enhanced Durability and Performance
- Brake pads friction materials maintain a stable friction coefficient across a wide temperature range, preventing brake fade during prolonged downhill braking.
- Ceramic and aramid fibers reduce rotor wear by up to 30%, extending the lifespan of brake discs and drums.
- Superior Comfort
- Optimized brake pads mixes utilize advanced damping layers to minimize vibration and noise (<65 dB), ideal for noise-sensitive areas.
- Versatility
- Compatible with trucks, trailers, and buses (e.g., Volvo FH16, Mercedes Actros MP5).
Packaging and Storage Guidelines
- Packaging:
- Sealed moisture-proof aluminum foil bags + reinforced cartons for bulk shipping, ensuring protection against humidity and physical damage.
- Labels include part numbers (e.g., WVA29087, 29174) and certifications (IATF16949, ECE R90).
- Storage:
- Temperature: 10–25°C; Humidity: ≤55% to prevent binder degradation.
- Avoid UV exposure and corrosive environments to maintain material integrity.
Applications
The brake pads formula is ideal for:
- Heavy-duty trucks (Volvo FH, Scania R-series, Mercedes Actros).
- Urban logistics vehicles and electric trucks requiring low dust and noise emissions.
- Mining and construction vehicles operating in high-temperature environments.
By integrating advanced brake pads friction materials and eco-friendly formulations, this No Metallic mixture sets a new standard for safety, sustainability, and performance in modern truck braking systems. For OEM customization, refer to supplier catalogs or technical datasheets.
