Saab 9-3X Brake Parts

100% New Caliper – Manufacturer recommends replacing calipers in pairs. With innovative fixed and floating calipers in aluminum and nodular cast iron, ATE is Europe’s market leader. And there is a good reason for that: during development, ATE simulates operational stresses in terms of braking load, vibration, corrosion and wear in extensive series of trials. This means that every basic safety-relevant function is ensured, the sealing of the hydraulic system as much as the venting function of the piston (roll-back), the return (knock-back) function, or the function of the housing/pad guides. ATE original brake calipers are supplied ready-to-install: rear-axle calipers with handbrake are usually pre-filled and preset. This permits simple and correct bleeding in the vehicle.

New Brake Hardware – Back to like-new performance The WBR complete disc brake hardware kits provide everything you need to perform a complete the brake job and restore the brake system back to the optimal like new operating condition. Disc hardware can lose 50% of spring tension within 1-2 years, which can cause pads to stick, create uneven pad wear, and lead to unwanted brake noise.

Product Features:

• Reduced Brake Noise, comebacks and unsatisfied customers,
• Extends the life of a brake job,
• Improved fuel mileage, and
• Restores brakes to like new Performance. Effects of Corrosion, Heat, Stress, Use Rust and Corrosion on floating caliper slides or bushings can prevent the caliper from centering properly, which can
• reduce effective braking force
• cause uneven pad wear, and brake noise. Rubber Bushings lose there resiliency and become flattened from the torque of the braking system which can
• cause excessive caliper movement
• cause unwanted noise like rattles and thumps.

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.

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
