Wet Brake Stopping Performance

COMPREHENSIVE TESTING DEMONSTRATES OUR PROMISE

At Ferodo, we carry out regular competitor tests to see how we compare with other brands. Each test reviews different qualities, such as dry stopping distance, wading troughs, emergency stop, handbrake testing, and noise, pedal feel and durability. Time after time, the results support our strong reputation and demonstrate the 'You're in control' promise we give to you.

WET BRAKING CHALLENGE SHOWS BETTER STOPPING POWER

Water was sprayed directly on to the brake disc, as well as on to the road surface, to create the most realistic and consistent wet conditions for every brake setup. Each product was tested with six brake applications from 50 to 0 mph (80 km/h to 0 km/h).

TEST PARAMETERS

• Ferodo FDB4319 OE quality brake pads versus seven competitor products
• This test was conducted by Federal-Mogul engineers at the MIRA proving ground independent test facility in the U.K.
