Dynamic Friction 2005-2015 Buick Allure Front 5000 Advanced Ceramic Brake Pads | 1551-1075-00

Only 20 years ago, ABS was finally making inroads into most mainstream vehicles. This has been an important development into increasing the safety capability. Along with this development, friction material selection became ever more important due to pre-set vehicle computer systems managing the braking performance of the car using the given parameters of vehicle weight, brake rotor dimensions, caliper force output, tire selection, suspension setting, among several others. The only way to fine-tune the overall braking balance is with, you guessed it, the friction material.

AUTOMATED BRAKING SYSTEMS

Now, more and more automakers have been installing automated braking systems, a move toward the autonomous vehicle. These systems sense impending collisions and actually take control from the driver and stop the vehicle by itself. The performance demands on braking components have now gone up exponentially. Even in the best circumstances with ABS brakes, a human takes about 2.0 seconds to react to a braking event. Automated braking systems can react in as little as 0.3 seconds! Working in concert with the sensing systems, the braking system is expected to come to a complete stop within a preset distance.
