Friction tested and certified by the brake experts at Bendix.

As a premier supplier to the OEMs, with standard position at Kenworth

, Peterbilt

, Volvo

and

Mack

and an option at International

and Daimler Trucks North America. Much more than a friction

manufacturer or brake shoe reliner, we are a full brake system supplier with unparalleled knowledge
of the brake system, making us uniquely qualified to develop brake products to exacting standards.

In our quest to deliver the highest quality brake linings, Bendix goes beyond industry standard
friction tests to conduct our own proprietary procedures on four in-house dynamometers. With
the full range of Bendix

linings – from OE linings and high performance solutions to meet reduced

stopping distance requirements, to premium aftermarket and economy grade friction – you can
always be confident you’re getting more. More performance. More service life. More value.
