Visually, fine steel wool fibers can be seen on the pad surface, making them easily distinguishable from ceramic brake pads. In addition, they exhibit certain magnetic properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The presence of steel wool fibers gives semi\u2011metallic brake pads higher structural strength and thermal conductivity, along with high braking sensitivity and excellent high\u2011temperature braking efficiency. They are suitable for braking conditions of high\u2011speed and heavy\u2011duty vehicles. A major advantage of semi\u2011metallic brake pads is their strong temperature control capability and ability to withstand higher braking temperatures. During braking, they help dissipate heat from the brake disc surface and transfer heat to the brake caliper and its components. Equally importantly, semi\u2011metallic brake pads offer outstanding cost\u2011performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, semi\u2011metallic brake pads also have drawbacks: due to their high metallic content, they are more prone to noise compared with ceramic brake pads. Furthermore, in low\u2011temperature environments, the high metal content results in greater surface wear on the brake disc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To overcome these relative disadvantages, our company has adopted the following improvement measures:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25c6 Refined formula design over 20 years to resolve the issue of excessive wear<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25c6 Imported three\u2011layer shims: rubber\u2011steel\u2011rubber structure<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25c6 Adopted OEM\u2011style slotting and chamfering processes<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ceramic Brake Pads: TD2, TTD\u2011580 Semi\u2011metallic brake pads mainly use coarse steel wool fibers as reinforcing and key compounding materials.
