Validation of Compressibility Test Systems for Friction Materials

2021-01-13
CURRENT
J3079/1_202101
This SAE Recommended Practice (RP) applies to the validation process for test systems used to measure deflection (compressibility, creep, or swell and growth) of friction materials and friction material assemblies. The materials or assemblies can fit passenger cars, light trucks, and commercial vehicles equipped with hydraulic or air brake systems, using disc or drum brakes.

Test Procedures for Shear Strength of Automotive Brake Pads and Brake Lining Assemblies

2007-08-21
HISTORICAL
J840_200708
This SAE Recommended Practice covers equipment capabilities and the test procedure to quantify and qualify the shear strength between the friction material and backing plate or brake shoe for automotive applications. This SAE Recommended Practice is applicable to: bonded drum brake linings; integrally molded disc brake pads; disc brake pads and backing plate assemblies using mechanical retention systems (MRS); coupons from drum brake shoes or disc brake pad assemblies. The test and its results are also useful for short, semi-quantitative verification of the bonding and molding process. This Recommended Practice is applicable during product and process development, product verification and quality control. This Recommended Practice does not replicate or predict actual vehicle performance or part durability.

Swell, Growth, and Dimensional Stability of Friction Materials and Noise Insulators when Exposed to Elevated Temperatures

2020-01-14
WIP
J160
This performance standard specifies a universal method of measuring the dimensional change of friction materials to determine the effects of temperature. The test applies to both, disc and drum type linings commonly used in hydraulic and air brake systems for automotive or commercial vehicle applications. This standard describes two main test procedures. Method A, where the friction material is in contact with a heated surface to simulate the heat input to the pad that occurs during actual usage. Method B uses an oven to heat the freestanding material and is an approximate procedure requiring less instrumentation. Method A is recommended for disc brake pad assemblies, noise insulators, or flat coupons; while Method B is recommended for curved drum brake linings.

Specific Gravity of Friction Material

2017-02-02
CURRENT
J380_201702
Specific gravity is a nondestructive test used as a quality control check of the consistency of formulation and processing of brake lining. The specific gravity and the range of specific gravity are peculiar to each formulation and, therefore, the acceptable values or range must be established for each formulation by the manufacturer. Specific gravity alone shows nothing about a materials in use performance. The specific gravity of sintered metal powder friction materials, particularly those which have steel backing members, is usually determined somewhat differently. Reference ASTM B 376.

SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF BRAKE LINING

J380_199302
Specific gravity is a nondestructive test used as a quality control check of the consistency of formulation and processing of brake lining. Specific gravity alone shows nothing about a lining's ability to develop friction or to resist fade when used as a friction element in brakes. Specific gravity varies with the formulation of the lining. The specific gravity of sintered metal powder linings, particularly those which have steel backing members, is usually determined somewhat differently. Reference ASTM B 376. The specific gravity and the range of specific gravity are peculiar to each formulation and, therefore, the acceptable values or range must be established for each formulation by the manufacturer.

Specific gravity is a nondestructive test used as a quality control check of the consistency of formulation and processing of brake lining. Specific gravity alone shows nothing about a lining’s ability to develop friction or to resist fade when used as a friction element in brakes. Specific gravity varies with the formulation of the lining. The specific gravity of sintered metal powder linings, particularly those which have steel backing members, is usually determined somewhat differently. Reference ASTM B 376, ‘Density of Sintered Metal Friction Material’ (latest revision).1 The specific gravity and the range of specific gravity are peculiar to each formulation and, therefore, the acceptable values or range must be established for each formulation by the manufacturer.

J2725_202304
This SAE Standard specifies a method for testing and measuring elastic constants in friction materials by precise ultrasonic velocity measurements. Measurement methods are also described for measurement of the out-of-plane modulus as a function of pre-load as well as the measurement of engineering constants as a function of temperature. Finally, methods are formulated to produce all engineering constants as a function of pre-load and temperature.

J2724_201605
This procedure describes a method for measuring the fraction of underlayer (also referred to as backing layer) existing at any given height above the a disc brake friction materials shoe plate. Measuring underlayer distribution is useful for computing useable lining thickness and for friction material quality management.
