Sudden brake failure is every driver's worst nightmare, but when the vehicle concerned is a heavy-loaded HGV the consequences can be catastrophic.
One of the most common and most dangerous forms of brake failure is caused by friction material detachment, where high temperatures and extreme load cause the friction material to shear from the back plate, yet the majority of so-called 'quality' brands of brake pads still provide little or no protection against this.
That's why, at TMD Friction, we've invested in an extensive programme of research and development, the results of which were a new manufacturing process and two highly advanced back plate designs to provide the ultimate protection against friction material detachment.  Endorsed by both vehicle and brake system manufacturers, this technology is not also available to the aftermarket through an increasing number of parts within our Textar, Pagid and Don ranges.
So with both lives and livelihoods on the line we've made it our responsibility to provide the solution.
Make it your responsibility to fit it.
