CR30M is a severe service high performance synthetic sintered metallic friction material that outperforms OE premium and aftermarket service heavy duty ceramic and semi-metallic pads. CR3OM advantages are derived from its ability to conduct heat away from the brake interface surface. The porosity caused by the finely granulated metallic and graphite particles, welded together in a matrix, allows air to circulate in the micro-pockets of the matrix. The macrostructure of the matrix is designed for both brake pad and brake rotor durability. Three high temperature synthetic graphite lubricants coat and protect the surface of the brake rotor, maintaining its surface integrity and effectiveness. The absence of phenolic binding resins means CR3OM pads are completely inflammable, providing an additional safety advantage to all fleets, especially hazardous cargo.
