STEMCO Duroline has launched its high performance friction material utilizing the proprietary “Wave Process” that the company said delivers superior stopping performance, longer life, reduced noise and reduced drum wear.
According to the company, the new product offering includes friction for standard, premium and specialty applications rated from 20,000 lbs. to 29,000 lbs. New families of friction include Horizon SP, designed for on-highway customers looking for a value-based product, Crest XL for extra life in demanding highway applications and Vista HP, a high-performance option for more demanding applications. Completing the product line on the high end is the UltraPeak family, which offers extended life by utilizing the next generation in film transfer technology.
