TiurMONi (ton 149*0440 FRICTION MATERIALS STANDARDS INSTITUTE, BERGEN MALL OFFICE CENTER E 210 ROUTE 4 PARAMUS N J 07632 INC. APR 21 1980 Mr. Richard Guimond Environmental Protection Agency Office of Toxic Substances Waterside Mall-East Tower 401 M Street Southwest Washington, D.C. 20460 ( Dear Rich: In our meeting In January we drafted several questions for the Membership concerning friction products containing asbestos. At our January 3, 1980 meeting we agreed on revision of some of the wording. Our question #4 was worded as follows: "Where you are the original equipment supplier of non-asbestos type disc brake linings would you describe the packaging of asbestos and non-asbestos linings within the brake itself? In other words, present model year and application data for: 4.1 4.2 4.3 Full non-asbestos linings Non-asbestos friction material with asbestos backing Use of non-asbestos lining at one position (inner or outer) with asbestos type lining at other position The Friction Materials Standards Institute gathered some of this informa tion from original equipment sources and we have the enclosed presentation to make as regards that information. I wish to caution, however, that some of the information is not clear-cut. In other words, in certain model years some semi-metallics which have been used on disc brakes were phased in and may not have been production for the full year. We are still attempting to gather the information on the other questions that were.asked. I must admit that replies have been slow. I will continue to attempt to gather sufficient information to provide you with reasonable answers to the other questions that were sent the Menbership, Sincerely, FRICTION MATERIALS STANDARDS INSTITUTE, INC EWD/lmc I E.

Drlslane Executive Director FMSI-0342 FMSI03635 POLICE AND TAXI USAGE OF NON-ASBESTOS DISC BRAKE LINING ON FRONTS Police and Taxi usage of non-asbestos disc brake linings was as a Police/Taxi Option--actual usage depended on customer ordering that option.
