Common terms for brake pads (1)

Every industry has its own internal terminology, and the brake pad industry is no exception. Only by understanding these terms can it be said that you have entered the industry, but do you know what unknown terms there are in the brake pad industry? What does the "friction material" we often hear mean? In fact, there are quite a lot of knowledge here. There are more than a dozen kinds in a simple list. Now let's learn about them one by one.

1. The term "friction material": The national machinery industry standard JB/T 5071-1991 defines it as: the material used for the friction part of the friction clutch and friction brake for the purpose of improving the friction and wear performance.

2. The term "asbestos friction material": National Machinery Industry Standard JB/T 2071-1991 defines as: friction material made of asbestos fiber with appropriate amount of filler, resin as binder, and hot pressing process.

3. The term "sintered metal friction material": the national machinery industry standard JB/T 5071-1991 defines it as: a friction material made of metal powder as a matrix with an appropriate amount of lubricating components and friction components, and made by sintering Material.

4. The term "metal-ceramic friction material": the national machinery industry standard JB/T 5071-1991 defines it as a friction material added with a certain proportion of metal oxides with ceramic properties.

5. The term "semi-metallic friction material": National Machinery Industry Standard JB/T 5071-1991 defines: asbestos inorganic fiber, metal reinforcing fiber, high-carbon iron powder and filler, with resin as binder, made by hot pressing process into the friction material.

6. The term "asbestos-free friction material": the national machinery industry standard JB/T 5071-1991 defines it as: an organic friction material that does not contain asbestos fibers.

7. The term "paper-based friction material": the national machinery industry standard JB/T 5071-1991 defines it as: using asbestos, pulp, etc. as the matrix, adding an appropriate amount of filler, using resin as the binder, and using papermaking and hot pressing processes. friction material.

8. The term "metal friction material": National Machinery Industry Standard JB/T 5071-1991 defines it as: friction material made of cast iron or steel plate.
