Hi-Density Friction� Higher density friction materials have the ability to hold more heat energy and therefore more efficiently dissipate the heat

� Higher density friction materials have stronger structural integrity, making them less likely to crack in service, while riveting or due to rust jacking

� Higher density linings exhibit significantly better wear characteristics, especially at higher temperatures

� Higher density friction materials are more resistant to brake fade and water fade

One of the most significant design characteristics of any heavyduty brake lining is its density. When higher quality and heavierraw materials are used in a lining's formulation, it creates a highermass in the block or stated another way, higher density. Truckbrakes are designed to convert the energy of a moving vehicleinto heat energy. A higher density increases the lining's ability toefficiently handle heat, and is the most critical component in afriction material's fade, recovery and wear.
