a) Rotors/Discs :
Cast Iron - Commonly used
Carbon Ceramics - High performance
b) Caliper Body :
Aluminium- Lightweight durable material
c) Brake shoes/Pad-
1. Friction Material:
a) Organic - General purpose (Combination of synthetic polymers)
b) Semi-metallic - Provide more breaking forces. (Copper fibers, Iron,Graphite.)
c) Ceramic -High temp resistance, reduce wear in heavy-duty scenarios. (Fiber glass, Ceramic fibers..)
2. Backing and insulation layer.
d) Brake calipers: Mainly Made if Cast aluminum alloy or Stainless steel alloy or Composite (ceramics with steel). (High Temperature resistance , low heat conductivity & wear resistant)
e) Hydraulic brake hose: Rubber hose reinforced by nylon webbing
