EXTREME PERFORMANCE FOR 4WD’s AND SMOOTHER, CLEANER BRAKING FOR SUV’s.

E X T R E M E S T R E N G T H

We test them to breaking point under laboratory conditions, simulating the sort of extreme conditions that most 4WDs will probably never see. Bendix 4WD/SUV pads are manufactured for extreme strength and structural integrity utilising the best available technology.

The unique central channel also helps to expel water, dust or dirt ensuring great braking performance even under the toughest conditions.

WE GO TO EXTREMES SO YOU CAN TOO.

Bendix 4WD/SUV pads are designed for extreme conditions using application specific materials to suit a huge range of 4WDs, all wheel drives and SUVs.

» Hybrid Fusion Technology for optimum control » Great pedal feel and quiet stopping performance » Exceptional fade resistance » Extended life

ADVANCED INTEGRATED BRAKING PERFORMANCE.

Hybrid Fusion Technology is an innovative combination of Bendix braking science and engineering that allows us to create integrated braking solutions for different driving styles. Hybrid Fusion Technology seamlessly combines Bendix leading technologies with new friction material compounds. The result generates advanced friction performance through the fusion of the complete range of Bendix innovations. Hybrid Fusion Technology integrates different compound combinations that are formulated at a molecular level to determine how the brake pad material is structured with EPR Technology, Blue Titanium Stripe and Fibre Impregnated Rubber Steel Shims into one innovative product.No other brake pad merges so many leading technologies to deliver such an advanced integrated braking performance.

This advanced technology means:+

» OE stopping power with quieter braking and smoother performance » Improved wear life of brake pads and rotors » Improved environmental protection by using more organic materials » Improved green friction and reduced brake fade

TOUGHNESS THAT LASTS.

VEHICLE SPECIFIC MATERIAL.

Bendix 4WD/SUV brake pads are built to withstand heat build-up that comes from frequent braking in heavy city traffic one day and towing or outback driving the next. This leads to brake fade and shorter pad life in cheaper pads.

Manufactured using EPR technology, Bendix 4WD/SUV brake pads give exceptional fade resistance under heavy loads and high temperature conditions. They also give excellent longevity in adverse conditions and are not harsh on rotors.

Bendix 4WD/SUV brake pads include Hybrid Fusion Technology to create an ideal match to specific vehicle types.

Heavy 4WDs require Hybrid Fusion Technology to deliver durability and confident braking when the vehicle is fully loaded or traversing steep off road terrain. For SUVs and ‘soft road’ models, the formulation is specifically designed for low noise and low dust. Bendix 4WD/SUV pads have been developed for optimum performance, no matter what you drive

BETTER STOPPING. SHAPED TO PERFORM.

For all-round safe stopping performance and exceptional pedal feel on all types of surfaces, you won’t find better than Bendix 4WD/SUV. When tested against another leading 4WD pad, Bendix 4WD/SUV pads took 24 metres less to stop.

All Bendix 4WD/SUV front pads are grooved which significantly improves performance especially when trekking off road. The groove is used to help expel any water, dust or dirt that comes into contact with the pad which becomes more prevalent when travelling off the beaten track. This means Bendix 4WD/SUV will continue to perform even under extreme conditions.

NO BEDDING IN.

Bendix Blue Titanium Stripe saves you time and money. Bendix Blue Titanium Stripe saves you time and money. Blue Titanium Stripe gives instant friction and positive pedal feel, the moment your customers drive out of the workshop.

The high friction titanium coating on the brake pad surface mates quickly to the rotor when brakes are first applied and full braking performance is achieved in a few stops. Normal bedding-in procedure is a minimum of 30 stops.

That’s 10 minutes of your time that could be better spent on other jobs!

BLUE TITANIUM STRIPE COMPARISON

WITH GREY (OLD) TITANIUM STRIPE Indicates full braking performanceafter 1-2 stops.

WITH BLUE TITANIUM STRIPE Indicates the highest level of instant friction.

WITHOUT TITANIUM STRIPE Indicates that over 125 stops are required to achieve full braking performance.

SAVES YOU TIME AND MONEY.

For every brake job you do, you can save 10 minutes of bedding-in time. Three brake jobs a day means 30 minutes a day or at least 2.5 hours a week.

• 4WD/SUV brake pads have exceptional fade resistance and offer extended life. • They deliver a consistent pedal feel all day long. • Wide coverage of references to suit 4WD’s, SUV’s and

all wheel drive vehicles on road.

Bendix Noise Absorbing Shims ensure an even smoother ride.

Bendix noise absorbing shims are designed to effectively prevent the transmission of vibration and noise from the brake pad by reducing the effect of the dynamic forces generated during braking, for the life of the brake pad.

INSTANT FRICTION, NO BEDDING-IN. Features a unique Blue Titanium Stripe for instant friction and positive pedal feel straight out of the box.

SUPERIOR CONTROL, EXTENDED LIFE.Bendix 4WD/SUV pads are manufactured using EPR (Enhanced Phenolic Resin), a high tech material that bonds the friction material together, even at extreme temperatures.
