HT Iron Oxide Black

As an ideal friction and wear property regulator, FERROX offesr the HT Iron Oxide Black with the following features:

  1. Stabilize friction factor;
  2. Reduce heat fading;
  3. Braking softly, no harm on brake pads;
  4. Restrain noise to occur;
  5. Offer better wear resistance;
  6. Less dusty during production.
   

The secret of the pads is that they contain iron oxide (i.e. rust), and work on the same principle as sintering does for disc brake pads. They dramatically improve wet weather braking performance as well as wear.”

"The Stoker invention uses an inorganic pigment, preferably, iron oxide, to form the thinner inner layer. The Stoker reference describes a bi-layer brake pad and does not disclose the several means for holding dye described by the present application.
