Automotive OEM
Surface Transforms works with a number of automotive manufacturers including mainstream OEMs and niche market/low volume car builders, designing and supplying carbon-ceramic brakes for a wide range of application. Surface Transforms is able to manufacture and supply brake disc assemblies to your specific requirements.
Our next-generation brake technology uses continuous-carbon fibers rather than chopped-fibers found in traditional carbon-ceramic brakes giving significant benefits over our competitors products:
- Better heat management – allows for lightweight design and /or improved performance
- Lower wear rate and oxidation rate – increased life
- Consistent performance at all operating temperatures
- Reduced brake disc and pad wear – giving increased life
- Competitively priced and without tooling costs
- Product can be refurbished – extending product life
This is in addition to the standard benefits of carbon-ceramic brakes over traditional iron construction:
- Weight savings of up to 70% (20kg approximately) – improving handling and driveability whilst reducing CO2
- Improved performance (in both wet and dry conditions)
- Corrosion Free – less brake dust
