AMERICAN BRAKEBLOK quality friction materials are the product of constant progressive research, plus extensive testing by American Brakeblok Division engineers, laboratory chem ists and technicians. To evaluate today's high speed stopping de mands, we maintain a fleet of test cars and trucks completely .equipped with instruments to record brake performance under all types of actual driv ing conditions. Our fleet runs brake lining tests around the clock, operating under all road and weather con ditions. These tests result in safer brake lining with exceptional friction, fade resistance, sta bility and long wear. During the manufacturing process, from the basic raw materials to the finished product, all phases of production are under the supervision of a strict Quality Control System, which insures a uniform product of exceptionally high quality. With proper installation and maintenance, each set of American Brakeblok Brake lining will continue to remain at this same high level of quality and will deliver outstanding perform ance throughout its long life.
