PCT No. PCT/AU95/00529 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 2, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 2, 1997 PCT Filed Aug. 24, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/07034 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 7, 1996A brake pad includes a friction material with a braking surface to contact a rotor disc. The braking surface has a leading edge relative to rotation of the rotor disc, an opposed trailing edge, and inner and outer circumferentially extending edges joining the leading and trailing edges. A plurality of grooves are formed in the friction material and open onto the braking surface. The grooves are angled from a leading end of the grooves rearwardly relative to a radial line and are curved from their leading end to their trailing end, and form substantially the arc of a circle when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the braking surface. |
