THE NEW BREMBO DUAL CAST DISC RANGE

Brembo, the world leader and acknowledged innovator of brake technology, today announced the addition of Dual Cast two-piece brake disc to its Aftermarket offerings.

The new disc range – exclusive to Brembo – represent another significant step in Brembo’s mission to become a solution provider. The introduction joins the company’s existing Floating, Composite and Co-cast collections, to provide customers with a complete choice of two-piece replacement discs for a host of premium vehicles.

This new disc solution features the unique technical characteristics of Brembo’s two-piece portfolio, including use of a special cast iron process, lighter hats, pillar or directional venting, plus holes and/or grooves on the braking surface. Together these design solutions guarantee optimum braking performance in all conditions. In addition, the new disc allows more precise and stable vehicle dynamics, better pedal feel and a lighter braking system, along with added environmental benefits.

Specifically, Brembo’s new Dual Cast discs comprise 16 unique part numbers for the sportier models of some of the most important car brands on the market.

The patented design positions an aluminium hat alongside the cast-iron braking surface, to harness the perfect performance of iron with the advantages of lightweight aluminium that can handle high temperatures. The result is a disc that’s up to 30% lighter than an integral one of the same size, allowing a significant reduction in the vehicle’s fuel consumption and emissions.

The Dual Cast design also delivers up to 70% better resistance to thermal deformations, ensuring less residual torque and reducing the possibility of vibration.

This new application also benefits from Brembo’s extensive experience as a manufacturer of top-quality Original Equipment brake components. Like all the exclusive designs in the company’s two-piece disc family, every Dual Cast component is made in the same factory, on the same assembly line, and is subjected to the same rigorous specifications and quality controls that Brembo applies to its OE solutions.
