• Nearly 10 years of research has resulted in brake friction material specialist Don's new disc pad compound. 7450, which it says represents a major step forward in pad technology.
The new friction material has been developed to provide the maximum braking performance coupled with competitive inservice costs, and is aimed specifically to meet the increasing demand for pads compatible with the latest generation of truck disc brake systems.
Don's designers aimed to optimise not just the purchase price but the whole life costs of the product too.
Significant annual cost savings are being claimed for the use of the new material over other aftermarket and OE alternatives.
Don 7450 is an original equipment material which is now available for many vehicles on the aftermarket. It is said to offer excellent friction stability with consistent braking performance being maintained in all operating conditions.
The risk of pad and disc damage in minimised by the use of low abrasive materials and lubricants which do not attack the disc surface.
