An aftermarket brake program that offers brake linings for 20,000- and 23,000-lb. applications is being offered by TRP. The range of remanufactured brakes includes single brake shoes and kits in 15×4-in. and 16.5×7-in. sizes for tractors and trailers. The product line also covers medium-duty trucks and severe-service products for high-heat, high-duty-cycle applications like buses and refuse collection and construction vehicles. All products offered in the TRP program meet FMVSS 121 standards.
In the 20,000-lb. GAWR range, TRP offers three grades of friction material for single and tandem axles. Premium-grade friction material is engineered to handle high braking-duty cycles encountered in city pickup and delivery applications and where steep grades are present. Standard-grade material is suited for on-highway, dry-freight, intermodal leasing and straight truck applications. Linehaul, or mid-grade material is offered for medium-duty straight trucks and tractors, and on-highway trailers.
In the 23,000-lb. GAWR range, premium-grade friction material is suited for high-duty cycles and mountainous terrain while standard-grade friction material is for on-highway trailers and tractors. TRP also offers 23,000-lb. severe-service-grade friction material designed to meet the demands of high-heat, high-duty cycle applications such as refuse, dump, mixer, tanker bus and off-road applications.
