TRW Brake Pads Set GDB1307

Product Information

TRW was founded in Germany in 1902 and has since become one of the leading suppliers of brakes systems and components globally, operating across 40 countries now.

Our scorching techniques heat brake pads to 600-700 oC to reduce bedding-in time and initial fading We design braking systems for over half the world’s vehicles, building much of the original equipment they are fitted with when they roll out of the factory*. We are also the leading brake parts manufacturer serving the independent aftermarket. The TRW research and development team maintains mutually beneficial relationships with major vehicle manufacturers around the world, to make sure that we can offer you – and your customers – the safest, best-performing products possible. If you are familiar with the look and feel of PVC verses silicon and nitrile then a physical inspection should be able to tell you what insulator is used. As for the conductors, copper is substantially heavier than aluminium, so the weight of the cable is the best indicator of what is inside. What are the different types of jumper cables? What are the Vented rotors help dissipate heat much more effectively, resulting in improved braking performance.One of the main reasons for this is that Brembo brakes are equipped with vented rotors while TRW brakes aren’t. These days it is hard to keep up with who makes what now. There are many acquisitions, Brands changing OM due to costs, performance, and supply. Price Castings are subject to stringent safety tests and controls before being released for machining. These close tolerances provide hassle-free fitting for you, and comfortable performance for your customer.

TRW TRUE ORIGINALS DISC BRAKE SYSTEMS TRW writes the rules on braking systems; we’ve been designing and making OE disc brake systems for the world’s top vehicle manufacturers for nearly 100 years. We’ll give you all the fitting accessories required to achieve a fast fit, and our 36-month, 31,068-mile (50,000km) warranty will add value to your business, as well as bringing peace of mind to your customers.Our developers have come up with a way for you to get the very best from front or rear brake pad replacement. It’s called COTEC. Other materials to look out for are aluminium coated copper conductors, which offer excellent conductivity and resistance to corrosion. Copper clad aluminium on the other hand is markedly inferior in almost every measure with the exception of cost, and is best avoided if you’d like to be able to rely on your jumper cables when the time comes to use them. Silicon rubber is also a common insulator type, which is wonderfully flexible however offers little mechanical protection for the conductors, which means they are easily pierced or torn if treated poorly or exposed to rugged conditions. ZF enables vehicles to see, think and act. The company invests more than six percent of its sales in research and development annually – in particular for the development of efficient and electric drivelines and also in striving for a world without accidents. With its broad portfolio, ZF is advancing mobility and services for passenger cars, commercial vehicles and industrial technology applications. To save energy and reduce CO2 emissions, we use an advanced heat plate scorching system rather than traditional flame scorching – a practice which is now an original equipment (OE) standard. Are you simply looking to replace the OEM pads or rotors? If so, this can change things, especially if it’s your daily driver.

As industry-recognised global braking specialists, we produce over 12 million brake discs every year for vehicle manufacturers and the independent aftermarket. TRW True Originals are just that: originals that are never just a copy of an existing model. We design and build everything from the ground up to meet the real world challenges your customers face, and because we never stop researching and developing new safety and performance features, you’ll always have access to the latest developments in braking technology to pass on to your customers. BMW and Mercedes-Benz have developed Semi Compound disc ranges for several models in their portfolio – and ZF Aftermarket has a range of high-performance two-piece Semi Compound brake discs, designed to enhance safety and performance and extend endurance levels in heavier, more powerful vehicles covering the BMW and Mercedes design.Most jumper cables consist of a pair of conductors just long enough to bridge the gap between two vehicles when parked nose to nose, terminated on each end by pairs of large alligator clips. Short jumper cables start at a length of approximately 2.5-metres, which is basically the minimum length required to bridge the distance between the batteries in two vehicle. Longer lengths are available, allowing greater flexibility in bridging gaps between the stranded and jumper vehicle. Grabbing longer jumper cables is highly advisable for this reason, especially if yours is an offroad vehicle or a mid-engine vehicle like a work van, however they must necessarily be markedly larger in capacity due to the compounding effect of inline resistance as the cable gets longer. Longer jumper cables capable of transferring the same amount of power as a shorter set will inevitably have a larger cross sectional area, and cost significantly more, due to the increased size of the conductors. Our scorching techniques heat the pads to 600-700 oC, which helps to reduce bedding-in time and initial fading. Automatic moulding presses allow us to use deep moulding technology, which produces a more consistent density and porosity. This will give drivers that leave the garage with our replacement brake pads fitted to their vehicles more comfortable journeys because it minimises the amount of judder and noise.

We manufacture in our own automated factories, using the latest techniques, technologies and testing methodologies to ensure that we’re always at the cutting edge. Complete visibility and management of every stage from design to delivery means that we can confidently offer our product guarantees, knowing that you and millions of customers all over the world are relying on us for their vehicle safety and performance. Many of our tests focus on the fading of brake pads, which is the most critical characteristic of commercial vehicle friction material. We test our products above and beyond the intended use, which means drivers will never find themselves in a situation where they can’t trust the brake pads in their commercial vehicle. Evaluated by independent authorities in the Netherlands, our testing processes include: To save energy and reduce CO 2emissions, we use an advanced heat plate scorching system rather than traditional flame scorching – a practice which is now an original equipment (OE) standard. Keeping your vehicle clean has never been easier. The product is slotted and chamfered so that it resists dust and dirt development. This also helps with noise reduction.

In addition to COTEC, we developed DTEC, a premium quality, ceramic formulation low dust brake pad with all the safety benefits of our main COTEC-coated range plus low-dust technology to reduce rim surface dust levels by up to 45%.So you can now offer added value for your customers with DTEC brake pads for cleaner wheels. TRW brake parts are the some of the most respected and trusted automotive components in the world. To maintain this trust we have to consistently provide high quality products, which we achieve through our rigorous testing process. We heat the friction material to up to 700°C to carbonise the first 0.5 to 1.5mm of its surface, getting rid of any trapped gases and resins. This reduces the need for bedding in and enhances brake pad performance. It’s a more effective process than conventional brake pad scorching, and not all aftermarket suppliers will go this far – some don’t even carry out a scorching process at all. We found this mentioned a few times in a couple of forums comparing other brands, not so much TRW vs Brembo. The TRW brand is built on a century of pioneering product development, and a dedication to quality. Underpinning what we do are three core values.
