R&D, laboratory and road testing, production and distribution: the control over the entire production cycle allows to offer a brake disc range with excellent performance, reliability, durability, and comfort in all conditions.
Resistance
UV coating: UV coating technology, developed in collaboration with car manufacturers, which guarantees superior corrosion resistanceand full protection of the disc.
Performance
PVT Ventilation: exclusive pillar venting system, patented , which improves the cooling capacity and increases resistance to thermal cracks of the disc by more than 40%.
OE Pedigree
Premium Range: composite and floating discs for prestigious cars, with excellent performance achieved through special materials and solution.
Comfort
High Carbon: cast iron brake discs with higher carbon content tominimise vibration and noise, maximise performance and increasedriving comfort.
Time savings
Kit with preassembled bearing: solution for brake discs withintegrated wheel hub, which allows a quick and safe installation, with a great saving of time.
Champion safety
Xtra: brake discs with holes on the braking surface that optimise wet performance, ensure constant regeneration of thefriction material and guarantee prompt braking under every condition.
The perfect solution
Max: brake discs with grooves on the braking surface that improve the performance of the brake system without compromising the safety.
In 2004, the carbon ceramic braking system was awarded the Golden Compass prize by ADI, the Italian Industrial Design Association.
Carbon ceramic offers substantial benefits in terms of performance - in both wet and dry conditions - weight, comfort, corrosion resistance, durability and high-tech appeal.
In June 2009, forged the equal share joint venture SGL Carbon Ceramic Brakes together with SGL Carbon, with the objective of developing carbon ceramic braking systems, and manufacturing and commercialising carbon ceramic discs exclusively for the passenger car and commercial vehicle original equipment markets.
SGL Carbon Ceramic Brakes is currently the leading producer of carbon ceramic discs, and supplies these components for the most exclusive models of prestigious brands such as Ferrari, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Corvette, Nissan, Lexus, McLaren, Volkswagen, Porsche, Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini, Bugatti and AMG.
