TMD Friction - The Creation of a Brake Friction Element

All over the world TMD Friction brake pads and linings are helping to make travel safer. In long-distance passenger and freight traffic, in public transport systems, on-road and off-road, TMD Friction products are proving their quality, reliability and safety a million times a day. In research and development centres in Brazil, the US and in Germany -- like this one here in Leverkusen -- experts are working day in day out on system solutions for the vehicles of tomorrow. After all, it takes one to two years of development work and up to 300,000 test kilometres before a brake pad reaches the production stage.
