First Line Ltd. is urging the automotive aftermarket to consider coated brake discs as winter approaches. The company emphasizes the benefits of using zinc aluminum-coated discs, especially in wet and challenging weather conditions, for enhanced protection against rust and consistent braking performance. Borg & Beck’s BECKTEC coating offers superior durability and reliability, making these discs a smart investment for maintaining vehicle safety during the winter.
Key Highlights:
- BECKTEC coating provides superior rust and corrosion resistance.
- Coated discs enhance durability and reliability during challenging winter conditions.
- Helps maintain braking efficiency in wet weather, preventing brake fade.
- Improved thermal management allows for better heat dissipation during heavy braking.
The BECKTEC coating on Borg & Beck brake discs ensures protection against moisture-induced rust, extending the lifespan of the discs and delivering consistent performance in damp conditions. This coating acts as a barrier against oxidation and enhances resistance to wear and tear, which helps prevent the formation of uneven braking surfaces over time.
As winter brings increased moisture and road salt, the protective layer on these coated discs is crucial for maintaining optimal braking performance. This ensures that braking response remains swift and effective even in harsh conditions, reducing the risk of brake system deterioration.
Kelvin Olds, Product Director at First Line Ltd., stated, “As we enter the winter season, the importance of quality braking components cannot be overstated. Coated brake discs are essential for ensuring safety and performance during adverse weather. The BECKTEC coating not only improves resistance to environmental factors but also helps in maintaining friction properties, which is crucial for effective braking.”
Additionally, these coated discs offer enhanced thermal management, allowing for efficient heat dissipation during heavy braking. This reduces the risk of brake fade, which can occur when high temperatures impact braking efficiency.
Technicians choosing Borg & Beck’s coated discs can ensure reliable braking performance, thereby reinforcing customer trust and loyalty.
