Reduce noise, cost, and wear by using abrasive materials.
Friction materials are used in the brakes of automobiles, motorcycles, aircraft, trains, and special vehicles, as well as in various industrial applications. Simply put, they are used as materials for brake pads and brake linings that stop vehicles. Heganes' iron powder is used as a filler in friction materials, imparting thermal conductivity properties to the products, aiding in heat dissipation, and contributing to improved performance and reduced wear of brake materials. Heganes' reduced iron powder (sponge iron powder) exhibits excellent bonding properties in the matrix structure of friction materials. Its very high internal porosity (voids) reduces brake noise and achieves significantly superior wear resistance of rotors and pads compared to other metal materials.
