Carbon friction materials provide an outstanding thermal capability with good wear resistance and superior NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) engagement characteristics. There are various types of carbon friction materials.
- Low ratio of static to dynamic coefficient of friction for enhanced engagement characteristics
- Smooth engagement
- Excellent energy capability
- Higher resistance to overload
- Good oil compatibility
