Friction Materials

Friction materials are used in most industries to induce resistance in several applications that require slow or decreased movement, such as in brake and clutch systems. For example, industrial machinery, automotive equipment, operating systems etc. all require the ability to slow down and/or stop their processes. Disc break pads, friction pads and linings are common components of these arrangements and these are made of friction materials. They are also referred to as brake materials and clutch materials.
