Temperature-resistant products for high-performance brakes
Aircraft brakes are key components and bear a lot of responsibility for facilitating landing, taxiing on the apron and aborting a take-off. The brake discs are subjected to extreme mechanical and thermal loads. With our PANOX® oxidized PAN fibers, we offer you temperature-resistant products for your high-performance brakes.
Materials
Our PANOX® oxidized PAN fibers are the preferred material for high-performance brakes. Their outstanding textile processing properties enable the production of brake discs, which can withstand temperatures of over 1000°C. Our brake discs are manufactured from preformed nonwoven products, which are then carbonized, resulting in a solid C/C product.
