First: Significantly Improves Friction Stability
As a critical part of brake pads mixture, Garnet Powder keeps friction stable even in extreme temps. Tests show adding 8-12% to brake pads formula maintains a 0.38-0.42 friction coefficient (-30°C to 600°C)—the industry gold standard. Unlike traditional abrasives (which drop 20-30% at high temps), it only drops <8%, avoiding dangerous “brake fade”.
Second: Reduces Wear for Longer Lifespan
In brake pads mixes, its mild, self-sharpening trait balances wear. With 10% Garnet Powder, pad wear is just 0.8-1.2 mm/10,000 km (30% lower than silica sand), and disc wear falls 15-20%—cutting user maintenance costs.
Third: Enhances Heat Dissipation & Reduces Noise
Garnet Powder (1.8-2.2 W/(m·K) thermal conductivity) cools brake pads friction materials fast, lowering max temp by 40-60°C during heavy braking. It also cuts squealing by 10-15 dB, boosting driving comfort.
In summary, Garnet Powder isn’t just an additive—it’s a Brake Pads performance optimizer. At Bull Chemicals, we’re proud to offer this solution that elevates brake safety, durability, and comfort, making it a must for high-quality brake pads formula and brake pads mixes.
