BRAKE ROTORS/DRUMS AND BRAKE PADS

摘要

Motorized vehicle brakes employing pads (16', 16''), rotors (10'), and/or stators (20) exhibiting a higher temperature and wear resistance than currently available brake parts. These pads (16', 16''), rotors (10') and stators (20) are preferably made of a structural fiber reinforced ceramic matrix composite material adapted for high temperature and wear resistance by the addition of an erosion-resistant/friction-inducing material either on the braking surfaces of these parts, or disposed within the composite material itself. Also disclosed is a method of integrally molding brake pads (16'') to the surfaces of metal brake parts.
