Caliper housing spring retaining clips are an essential component of ATE-designed fist floating brake calipers. The fist floating caliper consists of a holder and housing, which is located in rubber damping sleeves. It slides within the holder together with the outer brake pad while as the pad wears. To prevent the housing from lifting off the pad and causing noise issues, the caliper is pulled against the brake pad by the caliper housing spring retaining clip. These clips are exposed to continuous corrosion attack and should therefore also be replaced each time the brake pads are changed.

Carquest Standard brake pads are designed for original equipment (O.E.) fit, form and function for dependable stopping while providing great value. Our brake pads use quality friction formulas for reliable stopping power. Carquest Standard brake pads feature a single-layer shim that absorbs noise and vibration to provide quiet braking. These brake pads also utilize slots and chamfers based on the OE design. Carquest Standard brake pads are the right choice when looking for good performance at a great price.

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.

Dual Technology Ceramic (DTC) – Low Noise – Low Dust WBR ceramic brake pads are specially formulated for driving conditions that require superior friction effectiveness without compromising low noise or low dust characteristics. The advanced ceramic formulation mitigates wheel dust, brake fade, low speed and high heat squeal, at the same time providing positive pedal feel and long-life. Every WBR ceramic brake pad comes with a platform specific shim and has a burnished contact surface (scorched) just like OEM pads to ensure easy break-in and proper long-term functionality. Advanced Material Platform Specific Brake Pad Shims: To effectively combat brake squeal, WBR utilizes different advanced materials in the shim construction, as well as fastening the shim to the pad with both mechanical tabs and silicone adhesives. This platform specific advanced material shim design is included with every WBR brake pad.

Product Features:

• Original Equipment Performance
• Solid Pedal Feel With Smooth Braking Performance
• Ultra-Quiet Ceramic Formulation
• Low Dust – Long Life
• Advanced Material Platform Specific Shims
• Scorched for Easy Break In
• Positive Mold Construction

ATE is one of the world’s leading OE suppliers of brake control and brake assist systems. Hydraulic brake boosters make efficient use of the existing energy supply system in a vehicle. The hydraulic pump is used to supply, for example, power steering with the necessary high-pressure oil. It is only about the same size and weight as the tandem master cylinder. It has a substantially higher runout pressure than vacuum boosters, and is not dependent on a vacuum supply. It can therefore also be used without problem on diesel engine vehicles or on vehicles whose engines produce low vacuum levels. If the steering pump fails, the hydraulic pressure reservoir contains an adequate pressure reserve to apply the brakes several times with full boost effect. Even after this pressure reserve has been used up, it is always still possible to brake – although without reinforcement, and therefore with a significantly greater force from the foot.

Product Features:

• Original equipment (OE) quality
• Wide range of single and tandem Brake Boosters
• Unique tie-rod design meaning lighter and thinner parts for more efficient performance

CARDONE Remanufactured Power Brake Boosters are re-engineered, built and tested to match O.E. performance. Original designs are scrutinized for potential improvement and, where applicable, design upgrades are implemented to produce a more durable part than the original. All units are 100% tested to ensure perfect fit and function.
