The Challenge
Bendix partnered with Redah 4x4 Club for a 3D2N off-road adventure covering 85 km, including 20 km of rugged trails. Drivers faced muddy tracks, rocky paths, river crossings, and steep descents — the perfect test for Bendix Metal King brake pads.
How Metal King Performed
✅ Strong and consistent braking on steep downhill trails at elevated temperatures
✅ Low brake fade even after repeated heavy use
✅ Minimal pad & rotor wear despite mud, water, and heat
✅ Smooth operation with no vibration
