Federal-Mogul Corp. announced that its Abex line of premium-quality commercial vehicle braking products has been expanded to include a comprehensive offering of brake pads specially formulated for today’s air brake systems.
The company’s air-disc brake pads feature Federal-Mogul’s exclusive cast iron backplate technology, which the maker said ensures a more secure bond between pad material and backplate as well as reduced risk of corrosion — all in a more efficient and lighter weight design. Each pad also incorporates an integrally molded friction V-groove that greatly improves heat dissipation and eliminates excessive material stress under most temperatures and conditions, the manufacturer added.
These air-disc brake pads are compatible with vehicles equipped with anti-lock braking and/or electronic stability systems and feature application-engineered friction formulations that contribute to superior braking power, extended life and reduced rotor wear, the company said.
Abex commercial vehicle sets are delivered complete with installation hardware kits to help speed the repair and eliminate unnecessary costs for the customer, the manufacturer noted.
