MAN GENUINE DISC BRAKES: NO COMPROMISES ON YOUR SAFETY

DEKRA product comparison test* confirms outstanding quality of MAN Genuine Parts: The combination of MAN Genuine Brake Discs and Brake Linings scores top marks in terms of brake performance and wear. So you can reach your destination safely every day.

In the DEKRA product comparison test*, our MAN Genuine Brake Linings went up against products from other manufacturers in a direct comparison. The results clearly confirm the benefits of our many years of experience and the added value that this offers in terms of safety and economic efficiency.

AT A GLANCE

A product comparison test carried out by the independent test institute DEKRA confirms the outstanding quality and performance of our MAN Genuine Brake Linings: Alongside brake linings from various other manufacturers, MAN Genuine Brake Linings were tested for performance, wear, and heat crack resistance. All three tests were performed based on generally recognised standards. The result: In all three individual tests, our brake linings clearly outperformed the tested products from other manufacturers. It is now proven – with MAN Genuine Brake Discs and Brake Linings in your MAN, you benefit from increased safety and less wear.

See for yourself: Details of the DEKRA product comparison test* and the results of the individual tests are now available in our new brochure.

The brakes of your vehicle must be one hundred percent reliable. This is why the performance tests measure the brake output and the brake torque stability of the pads in all operating conditions. The EG fading test allows the testers to measure the chemical/physical effects of the reduction in brake output caused by an increase in operating temperature.

During the DEKRA product comparison test*, MAN Genuine Brake Linings demonstrated their stable brake torque. Even when the temperature was increased to 500 °C, the maximum deviation in brake output was shown to be as low as 4.5 percent. This ensures that MAN Genuine Brake Linings deliver a categorically reliable braking effect – in any driving situation.

The service life of your brake linings directly effects the overall economic efficiency of your vehicle. It is worth noting that the test series was performed with temperature ranges of up to 300 °C, which corresponds to normal operation on the road.

During the DEKRA product comparison test*, the MAN Genuine Brake Linings showed the least amount of wear when exposed to temperatures between 100 °C and 300 °C. However, that is not the only benefit of MAN Genuine Brake Linings: Despite an identical pad thickness, they proved to actually be lighter. The lighter weight of the linings also reduces the strain on the other components of the brake system, which means that with MAN Genuine Brake Linings you can benefit from a significant increase in service life of the entire disc brake of your vehicle.
