We certainly appreciate Steve's insight into Brake Pad "Numerology". Most of
his information is accurate. To clarify......The No Squeek - Low Dust
FRICTIONTECH pads are rated EXACTLY the same as Repco. For the record...
FrictionTech Semi-Metallics are "EE" Rated just like the Metal Master. The
FrictionTech Deluxes are rated "FF" just like Repco Deluxes. Yes they are
produced in CANADA "Let's Hear it for Maple Leaf technology" from our
Canadian Digesters............The company is a subsidiary of Raybestos.....A
World renowned name in Brake Technology on & off the track.
Bottomline for most folks in the market for brakes comes down to 3 items.
Usually in this order. 1. PRICE 2. Squeek Factor 3. Dust Factor
FrictionTech comes in a Winner in all 3 categories.If you will believe Steve
that Frictiontech sells the pads for $10 @ set they must make them for $5-6
Right? If you believe that I know of a great deal on a bridge in Brooklyn.
