Thermofiber 6050
THERMOFIBER 6050 is a high coefficient material that exhibits exceptional wear characteristics. Static and dynamic friction coefficients perform consistently across different speeds and temperatures, and will not “over-recover.”
TF6050 can be bonded, riveted, or bolted to corresponding core/carrier plates. It can be used in clutch and/or brake applications. This material is available in custom configurations or in a 30″ x 30″ sheet stock up to 2″ thick.
AVAILABLE FORMS Clutch Facings and Buttons, Disc Brake Pads, Special Pieces
