Brembo branches out
brake discs (including floating discs), bringing the company’s expertise as a supplier of top-of-the-range braking systems for the world’s most prestigious cars to the design and manufacture of aftermarket components for high-end cars.
The new Aftermarket range features high performance technical innovations, including: Specific materials. Dedicated venting solutions. Customised machining of the braking surface. Thanks to these technical solutions, Brembo guarantees top performance even in extreme conditions, highly durable brake components and the best driving experience. The new Aftermarket range, which will be expanded over coming months, already covers top models of such important brands as Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Aston Martin and others.
The Aftermarket product range includes premium applications that require highly specialist floating discs. These include; Mercedes C63 AMG (W204/S204) / CLK / CLS / SL55 / SLS63, Audi’s RS4 (8EC/8ED), Nissan R35 GTR and Mitsubishi Lancer EVOX, Porsche 911 / Boxter / Cayman, to name a few.
The brand new composite range of discs are also now available to Brembo Aftermarket, and like the floating disc these feature an aluminum hub and high carbon cast iron braking surface. These discs are fitted to the most recent and prestigious BMW applications – 5 Series F07, F10, F11, F18, 6 Series F06, F12, F13 and 7 Series F01, F03, F04.
Floating discs meet the need of premium sports cars, in particular, for lightweight and high performing braking systems. The weight reduction plays a primary role in the design of such brake systems. The floating disc meets this requirement.
Using an aluminum hub guarantees a significant reduction in unsprung weight, with a positive effect on comfort, handling and fuel consumption / emissions. The performance of the system benefits from the combination of the hub of the disc with the brake surface but each part maintains the possibility to swell even when thermally stressed. This highly specialised design allows uniform expansion that prevents the disc from deforming, even when it is overheated.
Brembo now offers aftermarket professionals a truly comprehensive range of aftermarket products covering all the requirements of the car park, including at the very top end. As well as the range of new premium discs from Brembo, BNT offers the standard aftermarket range of Brembo brake discs, which, like the premium range all Brembo discs, are manufactured to the same standard as what is supplied through OEM and with over 800 Brembo part numbers ex-stock and growing, we have your braking needs covered.
