Federal-Mogul Motorparts’ Ferodo® brand of premium braking Original Equipment and aftermarket products continues its commitment to environmentally-friendly braking solutions with the introduction of its ECO-FRICTION® brake pads.
Formulated after five years of dedicated research, with 1 500 materials tested and the subsequent development of 25 new components, Ferodo® ECO-FRICTION® brake pads outperform local legislative requirements to minimise the use of copper. The result is less emissions, in addition to weight loss, less use of heavy metals, more stopping power, and the same outstanding performances as Ferodo Premier pads.
The extensive testing that underpinned the development of the new brake pads was aimed at identifying an optimum formula that sustains the same binding effect as copper. Materials tested included metal sulphides, minerals, abrasives, fibres, ceramic particles, and various types of graphite. The main criteria for the testing were quality, safety, and performance.
The product also boasts new packaging features, including anti-counterfeit protection, OEM-matched accessories, a product drawing on the reverse side, and a high-quality, top-opening design. In addition, the pads are shrink-wrapped, with new ECO markings, a leaf classification on the back of the box, and new fitting instructions for easier installation.
