A non-asbestos friction material is made by molding and curing a composition comprising a fibrous base, a filler and a binder. The filler is at least partially composed of 1-35 vol %, based on the overall composition, of high-tar cashew dust having a tar content of at least 10 wt %. When used as a brake lining in drum brakes, for example, the friction material exhibits low wear during high-speed braking, excellent heat resistance, stable braking effectiveness and good strength.
