2. Brake lining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_lining

   In the automotive repair industry, consumers can purchase brake pads with a lifetime warranty. [citation needed] These pads use a much harder lining than traditional brake pads and tend to cause excessive wear of the much more expensive rotors or drums. For that reason, consumers should ensure that the new brake pads installed are those ...

3. Bundy tube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundy_tube

   A 1969 study by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) recommended the replacement of Bundy tube with 90-10 copper-nickel alloy UNS C70600 (Kunifer pipe) because of corrosion concerns. [1] Kunifer pipe has since been adopted by European automakers Volvo , Rolls-Royce , Lotus Cars , Aston-Martin , Porsche , and Audi . [ 2 ]

4. Banjo fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banjo_fitting

   Two banjo fittings (upper center of photo) atop automotive brake calipers. The copper crush washer in the gap between the fitting and body of the caliper completes the seal. Compared to pipe fittings that are themselves threaded, banjo fittings have the advantage that they do not have to be rotated relative to the host fitting. This avoids ...

5. Braided stainless steel brake lines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braided_stainless_steel...

   Braided stainless steel brake lines (also known as braided stainless steel brake hoses) are flexible hoses fitted to a hydraulic brake system. The intent of braided stainless steel brake lines is to improve brake system effectiveness and longevity as compared to an equivalent system fitted with flexible rubber hoses through near-elimination of hose expansion.

6. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

   Unlike air brakes, where a valve is opened and air flows into the lines and brake chambers until the pressure rises sufficiently, hydraulic systems rely on a single stroke of a piston to force fluid through the system. If any vapor is introduced into the system it will compress, and the pressure may not rise sufficiently to actuate the brakes.

7. Raybestos - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raybestos

   Mac's Spring & Brake Service shop, with Raybestos brakes (ca. 1930-1945). In 1906, Raymond and Law invented the woven brake lining, an important innovation in automotive brakes. From 1919 to 1989 Raybestos brand was manufactured by Raymark Industries, Inc, of Stratford, Connecticut. Raymark Industries filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1998. [2]
