Marathon’s brake pads

Oct 12, 2016

marathon-brake-systems-discstar-highway-premium-brake-pads Marathon’s DiscStar Highway Premium brake pads are suited for high-performance air disc brake systems used in on-highway truck and tractor steer and drive axles and motorcoach applications. The low-metallic friction material is rated for 23,000 pounds and is formulated for rapid heat dissipation to help provide longer pad and rotor life and dependable stopping power while reducing noise. The disc pad features added rotor compatibility for less brake rotor wear and uses an attachment method designed to strengthen the mechanical bond between the friction material and the steel backing plate for higher shearing resistance.
