      Advanced Technology™ Police Pursuit Disc Brake Pads

      Raybestos brand Advanced Technology Police brake pads are designed specifically for police patrol and pursuit applications. These Police pads utilize special materials to provide exceptional stopping power, temperature stability and to provide "Quiet on Arrival" (QOA®) noise-free braking performance. This exceptional product is the brand of choice as specified by numerous police agencies throughout North America. Today’s brake designs have advanced from hardware attached to the pad itself, to designs that interface between caliper and bracket. These (abutment style) clips are critical to proper operation and quiet performance. These types of components should be replaced during every brake service. Knowing their importance, brand has included abutment hardware with all Advanced Technology Police brake pad sets. But Raybestos didn’t stop there. All police pads sets feature rubber-coated abutment clips to maximize noise suppression.

      Advanced Technology™ Police Rotors

      Law Enforcement agencies demand performance, stealth and dependability in the patrol vehicles they operate on city and streets. With that in mind, Raybestos brand "Quiet on Arrival" (QOA ® ) Advanced Technology ® rotors are engineered for superior performance and deliver unmatched stopping power cooling properties ad noise control.

      Superior Metallurgy. Dedicated engineers have improved upon the "one metallurgy fits all" theory. QOA Technology rotors are cast from damped iron – an alloy that is metallurgically formulated to disrupt vibration and suppress noise ensuring consistent and quiet arrivals every time.
      Enhanced Vane Configuration. Specifically designed for increased air flow throughout the rotor, the QOA rotor maintains lower temperatures with a vane configuration no other competitive rotor in the market can match.
      Optimized Weight. When police vehicles make sudden high-speed stops, weight distribution and temperatures are inherently high on the front wheels. Recent fleet testing has reveled a replacement ratio of 3:1 between front and rear rotor. Raybestos QOA Advanced Technology rotors used on both the front and the rear provide outstanding braking characteristics and performance whether on patrol or in pursuit.
      Coat Armor. Subjected to environmental conditions such as heat, cold, ice, snow and rain, durability is a critical aspect of police rotors. This polymer binding coating has special armor-type shielding characteristics that provide significantly greater protection against the elements.

    • Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly

      The latest generation of hub units has a suspension mounting flange machined onto the outer shell with integral raceways, and a brake/wheel mounting flange with integral raceways machined onto the inner cone, making it even simpler to install and providing a degree of precision previously unattainable. Again, these units are pre-lubricated with an integral lifetime seal. They require no adjustment, are maintenance free, self contained and preloaded. Many of these units contain an integral ABS sensor.

      Benefits:

      • Simplified installation
      • Maintenance free
      • Maximized bearing life
      • No preloading required
      • Compact size

      Features:

      • Lifetime lubrication
      • Angular bearing contact for axial stability
      • Integral lifetime seal
      • Integral wheel mounting flange
      • Integral suspension mounting flange
      • Integral ABS sensors available

      Wheel Hub

      The second evolutionary step adds a flange to the outer shell of the bearing, eliminating the need for a separate hub. The flange cup contains integral raceways, and some of the units include ABS sensors as well. The brake and wheel mount directly to the flange, greatly simplifying installation. Like Gen I, these units are pre-lubricated with an integral lifetime seal. They require no adjustment, are maintenance free, self contained and preloaded to assure long life.

      Benefits:

      • Simplified installation
      • Maintenance free
      • Maximized bearing life
      • No preloading required
      • Compact size

      Features:

      • Lifetime lubrication
      • Angular bearing contact for axial stability
      • Integral lifetime seal
      • Integral wheel mounting flange

      Wheel Bearing

      The first step in hub development consists of a double row angular contact ball bearing set that provides for lateral as well as vertical loads. These units are pre-lubricated with an integral lifetime seal. They require no adjustment, are maintenance free and self contained. One major benefit of this design is that it required no preloading at installation. While proper preloading could lengthen a bearing’s life, improperly done preloading (due to the difficulty of measuring end play precisely), could just as easily shorten it.

      Benefits:

      • Maintenance free
      • Maximized bearing life
      • No preloading required
      • Compact size

      Features:

      • Lifetime lubrication

      Offer your customers a quick and easy way to improve braking performance with Raybestos drag reduction clips. The progressive OE designs are now available for a wide range of vehicles to help drivers achieve:

      • Better fuel economy
      • Reduced brake wear

      Reducing Brake Drag Helps Achieve:

      • Reduced Noise
      • Extended Pad Life
      • Increased Gas Mileage
      • Enhanced Vehicle Performance

      What is brake drag?
      Brake drag is unwanted contact between the friction material and the braking surface when the brakes are not being engaged. Brake drag can cause:

      • Increased vehicle rolling resistance
      • Increased brake system temperatures
      • Increased brake component wear

      How it works
      The springs provide positive pressure to the brake friction… keeping it separated from the braking surface when the brakes are not applied. This applied pressure is light enough that it has no effect on the braking system when the brakes are applied.
