Reasons Why Disc Brakes Perform Better than Drum Brakes

  • STOPPING DISTANCE
    Air disc brakes provide the shortest stopping distance
  • PROJECTED PAD LINING
    Fleet testing shows air disc brakes can last up to 2X longer than drum brakes
  • SERVICE TIME
    3x less time to change an air disc brake pad with fewer and less complicated steps
  • LESS NOISE AND VIBRTION
    Simple linear motion and opposing forces of disc brakes = Less noise / vibration
  • BRAKE TORQUE VARIATION
    Less brake torque variation = Smoother / Straighter stops
  • BRAKE FADE
    Better Heat Dissipation = Minimal Brake Fade
