NB180-FF HD truck brakes offer improved performance, wear life, and drum compatibility, exceeding competitive linings in this category.
NB180-FF HD Truck Brakes
Description
NB180-FF HD truck brakes are a hardy performer for enhanced routine service. They deliver reliable, uniform braking action with good mileage for heavy duty units in standard service. Made with quality materials in a friction formula that helps reduce drum wear, and gives excellent fade control, NB180-FF HD truck brakes are ideal for fleets where medium to long haul operations require safe, sure performance.
NB180-FF meets the inertia dynamometer requirement of the FMVSS 121 brake standard at a 23,000 lb. GAWR when using an AL factor of 180 (type 30 air chamber and a 6″ slack adjuster) or greater.
NB180-FF HD truck brakes offer improved performance, wear life, and drum compatibility exceed those of any other lining in this category.
Application
Recommended for use on S-Cam and Wedge brakes on trucks, tractors and trailers in highway, general freight and long haul applications over moderate terrain.
