Ceramic clutch facing

English Translation

Ceramic clutch facing (also known as ceramic friction pad) is a high-performance friction material centered on ceramic fibers or ceramic matrix composite materials. It is widely applied in high-performance vehicles, heavy-duty machinery and special working condition equipment. Its core advantages include high temperature resistance, thermal fade resistance and superior wear resistance, while a trade-off needs to be made between cost and driving smoothness.

Basic Definition and Material Composition

Essence:A composite friction material made by taking ceramic phases (silicon oxide, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, etc.) as the matrix or reinforcing phase, compounded with metals (iron, copper, tin bronze), graphite and organic binders. It is not made of pure ceramic material alone.

Common Components:

Ceramic fiber / powder: Forms the high-temperature resistant and wear-resistant framework

Metal powder: Improves thermal conductivity and the stability of friction coefficient

Graphite: Reduces wear, dissipates heat and lowers noise

Binder: Ensures material forming and structural strength
