ATE, a brand of Continental with more than 100 years of experience in brake development, is once again setting the standards in quality, innovation and system expertise. The high-carbon brake discs have a number of positive characteristics – they optimize durability and prevent, for example, brake judder and noise. With extremely low tolerances of max. 30 µm for lateral runout and max. 10 µm for thickness variation, ATE provides ideal aftermarket solutions in its role as a system supplier with OE expertise. The tolerances of the centering bores are also extremely low in order to prevent imbalance and radial runout. This contributes to extending the service life of the wheel suspension and wheel bearings. Depending on the vehicle model, mounting bolts are included with the brake discs at no extra charge. These mounting bolts are used to fix the brake disc to the wheel hub during installation. The bolt symbol on the brake disc label provides a clear indication that mounting bolts are included in the package. The mounting bolts included with ATE brake disc packages are always coated bolts, which reduces their susceptibility to corrosion and increases the longevity of the product. The MetaCote protective coating formulation is cured at approximately 572F. No grease or oil to remove. This helps protect against road salt, brake fluid and other corrosives – sheds water and dirt for clean appearance behind cast spoke wheels. Reduction in overall installation time.

Product Features:

• OE-equivalent and a direct fit replacement.
• Patented RotorLife wear indicator.
• Optimum performance at all temperatures.
• Reduced rotor wear.
• less susceptible to noise and vibration.
• MetaCote protective anti-corrosion coating.

The TRW Premium brake pads are designed and manufacturing to original equipment specifications, assuring superior quality and fit. TRW has introduced Cotec – an innovative coating for its brake pads. Independent tests have proven that Cotec achieves significantly shorter stopping distances than the brake pads of major competitors or even OE, for the first stops after leaving a garage following a brake pad change. In the normal bedding in process there is a period, known as the green behavior of the pad, which occurs at the start of the bedding in process where the friction co-efficient is lower than usual. Drivers can find it difficult to adjust to the difference in performance during these first stops. TRW Cotec brake pads address this issue by improving the contact between the brake disc and pad. The friction material is the most important part of a brake pad. All TRW’s brake pads contain the optimum mix of raw materials from rubber to graphite. TRW has made a significant investment over the years to ensure that we have the perfect mix – and we make it in-house. The ingredients ensure a stable friction coefficient and the safest braking performance in all temperatures, at all speeds and under all conditions. The backing plates used by TRW are designed, patented and produced in-house to OE specification. They are fitted to the friction material with a unique adhesive compound which can withstand high temperatures and resists extremely high shear strengths. TRW places great emphasis on noise reduction and its brake pads are fitted with high quality shims which act as a damper between the friction material and the brake caliper. TRW friction components are not only tested in our NVH (noise vibration harshness) laboratories and also on the road.

Product Features:

• OE-Equivalent and Direct Fit application.
• Include the OE specified shims.
• Low noise and reduced vibrations.
• Formulated to OE Specifications.
• Superior friction qualities.
• Organic blended compound.

ATE Original brake pads provide quality friction just like the OE pads they replace, providing customer-pleasing brake performance. With the best mixture of materials on the market and a production process which emphasizes quality all the way through, original ATE brake pads represent the state-of-the-art. In order to prevent noise during braking, highly effective primary and secondary measures are both used on brake pads. Primary measures act directly on the point of friction. Here, the main issue is optimization of the materials used for the relevant parts. In many cases, ATE uses the most effective variant and the best primary measure for noise suppression in the industry: the intermediate layer or underlayer! On the other hand, secondary measures are intended to prevent the structure-borne sound which is produced from reaching the ear of the driver and pedestrians. Secondary measures can generally be divided into four groups: damping plates, damping foils, paints and greases. ATE works with over 150 different mixtures of friction material to ensure that the optimal result is always achieved for any particular application. The friction materials are always being refined and developed for this purpose. The pad material consists of various components which each fulfill different functions during braking
