FRICTION COEFFICIENT BEHAVIOUR OF COMPOSITE BRAKE SHOE INSERTS IN THE DAMP
DAS REIBWERTVERHALTEN VON KOMPOSITIONSBREMSSOHLEN BEI NASSE
By means of bench tests the causes of drops in this coefficient have been established and there seems to be a link between this coefficient, the surface state and the pressure of the sliding film. By adding a hard abrasive product to the insert the increase in local hydrodynamic pressure is stopped so as to ensure that braking takes place in the wet. The article describes tests and results in the German Federal Republic.
