Which brake pads material is better to use on a vehicle: semi-metalic or ceramic?

Ceramic Brake pads 4 Comments »

Which one is more quieter?

the ceramic’s dissipate heat better, so if you do a lot of braking , like in the mountains, ceramic might be better. Or, learn to drive without braking. Wagner has a line of pads called ‘Thermo-quiet’ I think that have a thick plate on the back that keeps them quieter and provides excellent braking.

How do you recondition general aviation ac brake pads?

Brake Pads 1 Comment »

Do you just disassemble the brake shoes and scuff up the pads to remove the glazing? My Brake Pads are farely new and the pad thickness is good.
Do you need to clean the pad faces with anything in particular prior to reassembly? How do you like to wear in the pads after reconditioning?
Mine are Cleveland brakes on my Steen Skybolt. I’ve already drained and replaced the hydraulic fluid correctly. Master cylinders are fine too. My brake system is sound with no leaks or softness.

Karl, Unless you are an A&P I recommend you have a look at

Brake Pads No Comments »

For twenty years now, EBC’s dominance in manufacturing brakes never faded. Today, the company’s products are still linked to national and world championship winners. EBC is known in the international motorsports arena because of its excellence in manufacturing brakes. And the legacy continues as it unravels new champions in the racing world.

Racing enthusiasts use EBC brakes to perfect their driving needs. To them, brakes must not be a so-so one but a superb brake that can outshine the rest of the brakes. EBC brakes come with pads and rotors to boost a riding experience of every driver. Experts are saying that there is no wonder why EBC are making winners in the racing arena. They further added that the future certainly looks bright for said company because of its founded legacy of champions. This is a solid proof that EBC has the winning quality and know-how in the brake manufacturing realm.

EBC has launched its automotive range of disc Brake Pads in the late part of 1980s. Since its launching, a constant meteoric rise has placed it in the history of brake manufacturing. It can also be recalled that EBC brakes have been used by the last three successive World Super Sport Champions. But before that, EBC has already established its name by dominating majority market shares in most western markets. Brakes manufactured by EBC are for mountain bikes, automobiles, vans, trucks, buses, race and rally cars, commercial vehicles and even mainline locomotives.

Brakes importance cannot be overemphasized. Moreover, it is vital for drivers and vehicle owners to use nothing but top-notch quality brakes for utmost safety in driving. This braking performance can only be had if the brakes are equipped with the latest innovations like rotors in drilled and slotted form. Another determining factor is the brakes performance in short stopping distances, dust production and fading. Further, brakes must not have structural weaknesses that can cause accidents and misdemeanors. These factors are meticulously considered by EBC brakes to secure a high-performance braking habit at the same time security while driving.
