febi Truck range offers braking benefits
CV parts supplier febi Truck offers an extensive range of more than 730 braking components, citing premium quality and competitive pricing as among its key advantages.
“With a 97 per cent VIN coverage, febi Truck offers high quality, long-lasting solutions covering all common European (‘The Big 7’) manufacturers and models,” said the company.
Among the portfolio are both brake discs and pads, which are said to provide OE matching quality, with safety as a core focus.
“Brake discs and pads are subject to very high mechanical and thermal loads (up to 800°C),” said febi Truck.
“This impacts wear, together with environmental factors such as water, grit and dirt from the roads…
“febi internal quality control tests ensure that our braking products can meet the increasing demands of the road while contributing to road safety. Only when all checks are complete, and passed, can a vehicle component make it into the febi range.
“To underline our high product quality standards, we are providing a 3-year manufacturer’s guarantee for all of our replacement parts.
“febi Brake Pads are specially designed to meet high standards. New brake pads normally need a bedding-in period; this is not necessary with febi Brake pads. With the high friction bedding-in compound – also known as the tiger stripes – on the brake pads, your fleet can have high braking performance from the very beginning.”
All febi Brake Pads are delivered with the necessary accessories. Further advantages highlighted include an optimal mixture of friction material for low fading and a long service life; high material quality, compression and shear strength; and ECE R90 certification.
The company also emphasises the endurance credentials of its brake disc range.
“They have been regularly used in truck racing for years, where febi has been involved in truck racing sports and sponsors Team Schwabentruck, one of the team champions of the FAI Truck Racing Championship,” said febi Truck.
“Professionals including the experienced racing driver, Steffi Halm, and the former European Champion, Gerd Körber, rely on brake discs from febi – and with great success as demonstrated by their impressive racing results.
“Manufactured for everyday use, the febi brake discs’ performance is excellent even under the extreme conditions of truck racing.”
Advantages of fitting febi brake discs are said to include precise manufacturing to ensure no rubbing or vibrations, and cooling ducts designed for optimal cooling performance to prevent overheating and cracks. The discs are also ECE R90 certified.
febi’s braking range also includes brake shoes, brake camshafts, diaphragm brake cylinders and slack adjusters. A complete overview of the range can be found at the Partsfinder website.
