Thermofiber 1350
THERMOFIBER 1350 is a heavy-duty industrial radius lining and brake block material. This material is specifically formulated for expander tube style centrifugal brakes and clutches because it exhibits a porosity that allows the heat to be dissipated away from the rubber expander tube.
THERMOFIBER 1350 has a high resistance to fading and exceptional wear characteristics similar to the other Thermofiber rigid industrial materials.
