This SAE Recommended Practice establishes an inertia dynamometer test procedure, using exemplar caliper disc or drum brakes, to characterize the effectiveness of brake friction products for passenger cars and light trucks, up to and including 3500 kg GVW. SAE J2430 provides a method of characterizing friction material effectiveness, using vehicle specific brake hardware and test conditions that approximate those for U.S. mandated new vehicle brake tests.

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes an inertia dynamometer test procedure, using an exemplar caliper disc brake, to characterize the effectiveness of disc brake friction materials for passenger cars and light-duty trucks, up to and including 2700 kg (5954 lb) GVW. SAE J1652 provides a method of characterizing friction material effectiveness on a full disc brake, using test conditions that approximate those for U.S. mandated new vehicle brake tests.
