Friction and Sealing Components for Automotive and Brake Manufacturing

Automotive and brake component manufacturing depends on friction materials holding a consistent coefficient across their service life, alongside the general sealing and cushioning components used throughout vehicle assembly.

Brake and clutch friction linings

Non-Asbestos Woven Brake Lining holds a stable coefficient of friction around 0.4 and resists fade under repeated braking — the same construction principle used in industrial winch and crane brakes applies directly to heavier automotive and off-highway brake assemblies.

General sealing and gasketing

Rubber Sheet in oil-resistant NBR grade covers gasketing around engine and drivetrain components exposed to oil and fuel, and Foam Rubber Tape seals panel gaps, trim and body cavities against water and noise.

Frequently asked questions

Is non-asbestos brake lining a like-for-like replacement for asbestos lining? For friction performance, yes — the coefficient and fade resistance are comparable; the main reason to switch is regulatory, not performance.

What rubber grade should be used near fuel lines? NBR (oil-resistant) grade specifically — standard SBR rubber degrades on prolonged fuel or oil contact.
