Surface Transforms has revolutionised braking systems with its innovative Carbon Fibre Reinforced Ceramic (CFRC) material. Using proprietary processes, the company transforms Carbon-Carbon into Carbon-Silicon Carbide (CSiC) ceramic, enhancing the overall performance and durability of the braking components.
Unlike conventional carbon-ceramic discs that use chopped carbon fibre, Surface Transforms employs continuous carbon fibre, interwoven into a 3D multi-directional matrix. This advanced design results in a product that is not only stronger but also more durable, boasting three times the heat conductivity of traditional components. This superior heat management helps maintain consistent brake performance even under high temperatures.
Surface Transforms’ patented next-generation Carbon-Ceramic Technology offers significant advantages for both road and track vehicles. Key benefits include a remarkable weight reduction of up to 70% compared to iron brakes, significantly improving handling and driveability. The technology also reduces noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), enhancing overall driving comfort. Additionally, these carbon-ceramic discs perform exceptionally well in both wet and dry conditions, offer reduced brake wear, and are completely corrosion-free. Even in cold weather, they deliver outstanding performance, ensuring a reliable and long-lasting braking system.
This cutting-edge technology is a game-changer, providing superior braking power and reliability for those seeking the best in vehicle performance.
