For heavy-duty trucks, it is critical to use Performance truck brake linings to enhance braking capabilities. Specialized high-friction materials such as advanced ceramics and high-performance semi-metallic compounds offer superior construction. These performance linings do not suffer from brake fade due to heat build-up from intense braking due to superior heat resistance. Trucks benefit from sharper initial bite, reduced stopping distance, consistent braking under high stress and speed, and thrusting optimal control and safety.
