Since 2008 Zimmermann is offering almost 400 Standard and almost 400 Sports Brake Discs in a coated version named Coat Z. The Zimmermann Coat-Z brake disc provides a protective coating that prevents rust and corrosion, extended rotor life and improved visual appearance. To improve the rust protection during storage and usage, Otto Zimmermann GmbH implements this new Coat-Z technology step by step in its production range. Beside the still optimum function of the brake disc, this coating ensures a consistent attractive appearance. Zimmermann brake discs are usually made of cast iron (with flake graphite) of different qualities; they correspond to the material used for the original spare parts. Therefore, the utilization of such materials (referred to as High Carbon by the competition) has always been a matter of course for Otto Zimmermann.

Product Features:

• Coat-Z protective anti-corrosion coating
• No formation of rust at the hub and herewith improved visual appearance
• Immediate functional capability without removal of the coating before mounting
• Excellent deceleration action and no distortion of friction ring at high temperatures
• Substantial weight saving and therefore less unsprung mass
• Floating mounting enables radial expansion of the brake disc under relatively heavy loads, thus preventing shielding and increasing resistance to heat cracks
• Hot spots prevented by optimized design of ventilation channels
• 1:1 exchange of original disc possible
• Not subject to registration: general ABE certification supplied with disc
• No conversion required for brake tuning

Dorman’s Brake Master Cylinder Caps are engineered for affordability and convenience. Save time, money and labor by replacing only the Cap, instead of the entire Brake Master Cylinder.

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.

Product Features:

• Premium Original Equipment replacement
• Provides performance and dependability
• Manufactured to meet OE specifications

The RotorShield barrier is applied to the rotor hat to protect from unsightly rust and help maintain a like-new appearance. Our rotors are designed to effectively dissipate heat, helping to eliminate brake fade and increase the life of the pads and rotors. Carquest Platinum painted brake rotors are designed for long-lasting and quiet braking with superior performance.

This part matches Original Equipment (OE) quality specifications which means that it is at least as good if not better than the original part the manufacturer supplied the car with. 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:

• Include the OE specified shims.
• Low noise and reduced vibrations.
• Formulated to OE Specifications.
• Superior friction qualities.

ATE supplies brake boosters in single or tandem versions and in all desired sizes and is one of the world’s leading OE suppliers of brake control and brake assist systems. The tie rod version, which is available for all designs, provides further weight reduction and additional optimized elongation characteristics. Front-bolt concepts on a tie-rod basis facilitate installation. Electric and mechanical brake assist systems, sensors for OHB, ACC, ESC, etc., as well as measures designed to optimize crash behavior complete the product portfolio. Brake assist systems are an important aid in emergency braking situations in which a driver needs to respond to an emergency situation, but does not apply the brakes with sufficient pressure. The brake assist recognizes the brake application speed to detect this type of panic situation, and activates the brake booster or the EBS hydraulic unit. Maximum braking is thus achieved although the force on the brake pedal is low – the shorter braking distance can even be life-saving.

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
• Most units are made of steel, but lightweight aluminium versions are also available.
