Working Harder
Working vehicles make special demands on brakes. Utes carrying loads under all sorts of driving conditions; the constant stop start of delivery vans and couriers about town. And towing, of course, puts extra demands on brakes. That’s why Bendix has developed a special compound that is able to deliver heavy duty performance under loads at high temperatures and last up to twice as long as all-purpose standard brake pads.
Working Longer
The economic consequences have also been taken into consideration when formulating a new compound. It must be long lasting without being unduly harsh on rotors. Fortunately Bendix, with the backing of the best technology from around the world and its unique testing laboratory was able to create a compound that met all these requirements to make it the ideal workmate. These pads have been extensively tested in the lab and on the road. They not only work better – they work longer.
Working Cooler
A significant feature of Bendix Metal King pads is the exclusive insulation layer (Insulayer) sandwiched between the backing plate and the friction material. The insulation layer assists the adhesion of friction material to the backing plate and minimises heat transfer which stops brake fluid from boiling, prevents damage to the caliper and ensures a positive pedal feel at high operating temperatures.
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| INSULAYER | Exclusive insulation layer enables the brake pads to operate in high temperature conditions offering longer pad life, improved fade and improved rotor life. |
| BLUE TITANIUM STRIPE | No bedding-in required, meaning less down time and improved customer satisfaction. Instant pedal feel from the first stop. |
| NOISE ABSORBING SHIMS | Featuring Noise Absorbing Shims for reduced transmission of vibration and noise from the brake pad during extreme braking. |
| DESIGNED FOR HARD WORKING VEHICLES | Able to handle extra loads. Great for towing, courier vans, taxis and heavier vehicles. |
| WIDE RANGE | More than 300 references available covering the majority of vehicles used in carrying loads, towing or involved in frequent heavy braking. |
