Braking specialist Brembo has highlighted how its exclusively engineered Prime braking range offers a win-win for both the aftermarket and road users.
Brembo Prime delivers optimum braking efficiency for every size of vehicle, in any road or weather conditions. It is a complete range that is produced to the highest original equipment specification, with each component designed and tested together for outstanding synergy, quality, performance and convenience.
Brembo Prime is a family of premium pads, discs, calipers and fluids that offers a complete replacement braking system for every European application, from passenger cars and light commercial vehicles to the rigorous demands of heavy-duty trucks. The range provides 98% parc coverage, along with ready availability and fast-moving references. Workshops can also be assured of easy, first-time fit, while giving their customers unbeatable stopping power on the road.
Prime discs utilise OE specification, high-carbon cast iron to minimises vibration and noise, while maximising performance. Additionally, a patented, internal pillar ventilation system aids cooling and enhances disc resistance. Brembo’s market-first, solvent-free UV surface coatings, developed in collaboration with car makers, protect the discs against corrosion and have achieved a salt spray test resistance of more than 240 hours. The range also includes lighter-weight, two-piece Prime discs designed specifically for premium cars, featuring options such as Composite, Floating, Co-cast, Lightweight and Dual Cast discs. For fitters, Prime discs bring the added convenience of 98% parc coverage and come with all the required fixing hardware for fast, simple installation.
Importantly, Brembo has also ensured that every Prime disc is paired with a comprehensive selection of Prime brake pads. By specifying the right, eco-friendly friction materials for each vehicle, Prime pads delivers long-lasting performance, comfort and wear. Careful scorching and directionality of the friction compound prevents fading, resulting in less noise and vibration. Features such as patented damping weights, chamfers, slots and multi-layer piston shims further reduce brake noise. An additional, copper-free Prime Ceramic pad range offers enhanced durability and low dust emissions. For easy servicing and installation, each pad includes an at-a-glance wear indicator and comes with a fitting accessory kit.
Adding further business potential to the collection are Brembo’s Prime calipers for LCVs. Specifically designed by Brembo for the long miles covered by light commercial vehicles, every caliper aids reliable, efficient braking performance. They can also be combined with a Brembo bracket, for complete, safe servicing of the braking system.
Prime brake discs and pads for commercial vehicles present an all-round solution for even the toughest heavy-duty needs. The durable Prime CV disc range includes not only standard references but also Co-cast and Ring options, whose advanced technologies ensure superior mechanical resistance, better heat dissipation, thermal crack reduction and longer life across thousands of miles. Matched perfectly with these discs, Brembo’s Prime CV pads incorporate 18 different friction materials and 30 different components to meet every heavy-duty demand.
Completing the whole range are Brembo’s Prime brake fluids, providing the ultimate braking amplification for all vehicle sizes and types, while protecting important components from corrosion.
