Friction Technology ENGINEERED FOR CONSISTENT PERFORMANCE
FrictionGuard brake pads are engineered to deliver the balance of braking performance, comfort and durability demanded by modern European vehicles.
Application-specific friction materials, precision manufacturing and advanced noise-control technologies work together to provide confident, consistent braking across everyday driving conditions — from the first stop to repeated braking under higher thermal loads.
Advanced Ceramic Formula CLEANER. QUIETER. ENGINEERED FOR MODERN BRAKING.
FrictionGuard ceramic brake pads combine strong braking performance with the refinement expected from today’s vehicles.
With a friction coefficient above 0.4, compared with a typical industry range of approximately 0.30–0.35, the formulation is engineered to provide responsive braking while maintaining stable performance as temperatures increase.
The ceramic formulation also produces significantly less visible brake dust, helping wheels stay cleaner while reducing brake-related particulate emissions.
Key benefits
- Friction coefficient above 0.4
- Stable performance under repeated braking
- Low brake dust
- Cleaner wheels
- Excellent wear resistance
- Disc-friendly friction characteristics
Cleaner Braking Technology HIGH PERFORMANCE. LOW DUST. LOWER IMPACT.
Every braking event creates friction. The difference is what that friction leaves behind.
FrictionGuard ceramic brake pads use advanced friction technology to deliver a coefficient of friction above 0.4, stable braking characteristics and excellent wear resistance while significantly reducing brake dust.
The result is high-performance braking with cleaner wheels and reduced friction-material particulate emissions — an increasingly important consideration as Euro 7 introduces limits for brake particle emissions.
It’s a cleaner approach to braking technology without compromising the performance that matters.
Less dust. Less particulate. No compromise on braking performance.
OE Specification BUILT TO PERFORM.
Correct fitment is fundamental to brake performance.
FrictionGuard brake pads are manufactured to OE specifications, including pad dimensions, friction material thickness, chamfers, slots and shim configuration.
An underlayer between the friction material and backing plate provides additional strength and helps protect against delamination under the heat and loads generated during braking.
The result is a brake pad designed to fit correctly, operate consistently and provide long service life.
TESTING & APPROVALS PERFORMANCE YOU CAN VERIFY.
FrictionGuard brake pads are tested against recognised international standards for braking performance, noise, wear and durability.
Applicable products are approved to ECE R90/E-Mark requirements, with additional NSF and AMECA certification across the range.
Noise performance is also evaluated using SAE J2521, one of the automotive industry’s recognised procedures for assessing brake noise.
These standards provide independent verification that FrictionGuard products meet the performance and quality requirements expected of modern replacement braking components.
CONFIDENCE IN EVERY STOP
From ceramic friction technology and low-dust performance to noise control and application-specific engineering, FrictionGuard brake pads are designed to deliver the braking characteristics modern vehicles demand.
Performance. Refinement. Durability.
