Designed for longer lining and drum life and quieter braking, CCM2423 heavy-duty friction brake lining has been introduced by Brake Pro Ltd. Identified by a metallic light red edge, the CCM2423 product was specifically developed by the company for 23,000-lb GAWR vehicles operating in linehaul and vocational truck fleets.

The CCM formula developed by Brake Pro combines three formulation concepts into one brake lining:

• Conformable, the compressibility of the brake lining, provides greater surface contact.

• Cohesive, transfer film technology, enhances compatibility between lining and drum.

• Metallic refers to the metallic fibers added to provide superior thermal capacity and diffusivity, allowing the brake lining to run cooler.

Fleets choosing these application-specific CCM brake linings experience longer maintenance intervals due to longer drum and lining life as well as superior stopping performance, the firm says. For more information, contact Brake Pro, Kennesaw GA.
