Friction materials are engineered to deliver controlled interaction between surfaces, whether generating friction for braking and clutch engagement or managing wear and heat in dynamic systems. Applications such as brake pads, clutch facings, and industrial friction components require precise material balance to ensure safety, consistency, and long-term performance.
Asbury Advanced Materials supplies a broad portfolio of carbon and graphite solutions designed to enhance friction product formulations. Our materials contribute to friction stability, heat management, wear resistance, and overall system performance across automotive, industrial, and specialty applications.
With expertise in raw material processing and formulation support, Asbury helps manufacturers develop friction systems that perform reliably under demanding conditions.
Friction material manufacturers face several key challenges:
Anwendungsbereiche
Carbon and graphite materials play a critical role in friction system performance:
Graphite helps regulate the coefficient of friction, ensuring consistent and predictable performance across a range of operating conditions, including for brake pad friction materials.
Carbon materials dissipate heat generated during braking or engagement, helping prevent overheating and maintaining system performance.
Graphite’s lubricating properties reduce wear on both the friction material and the opposing surface, extending component life.
Carbon additives contribute to smoother engagement, helping reduce noise and vibration in braking and clutch systems.
