How Are PAGID Pads Attached To The Backing Plates?
PAGID uses a unique and patented system to ensure the friction material does not delaminate from the steel backing plate. The friction material is attached to the backing plate in two ways, adhesive bonding and mechanical retention. The mechanical retention (patented) is accomplished by inserting ‘brass torpedoes’ (studs) -which are welded onto the steel backing plate – deep into the friction material. The ‘brass torpedoes’ do not harm the brake disc (rotor).
