A method for producing a brake component of the kind forming part of a brake system in which a brake lining is pressed against said brake component which is made of an aluminium-based alloy and which is provided with a wear-resistant layer or surface. The brake component is produced by permitting an aluminium-based melt to solidify under pressure in a molten metal press mould, and providing the solidified or solidifying aluminium-based component with a wear-resistant layer. This layer comprises a chromium-carbon-iron-alloy containing 10-30%, preferably 15-20% by weight chromium, and preferably 2-4% by weight carbon. The layer has a thickness of 0.3-1.0 mm and is preferably applied by means of a plasma spraying process. |
