Bonding is better


Bolted or riveted brake linings can damage brake drums and contribute to noise problems. This photo shows drum damage resulting from mechanical fastener penetration, counter bore debris or both. Cracks or splits can result from improper riveting or bolt torque pressure and sequence. Road salt dramatically accelerates brake shoe deterioration. Rust cracking begins when water attacks the brake shoe table underneath the brake lining. Bonding seals out the elements to significantly increase the service life of expensive brake shoe and lining assemblies. Bonded brakes have more available friction material surface area and depth than conventional bolted or riveted brake linings. Customers indicate longer lining life; smoother drum wear, and longer brake life while enjoying quieter stops.
