RWT

RWT is a grey metal based friction material which is able to perform at very high temperatures. It offers good heat dissipation and high compression strength characteristics. RWT is composed basically of resins as a link system, frictional modifier agents, mineral and organic fibres. It has a high and very stable friction coefficient with low rate of wear and excellent resistance to fading. It is fully cured and suitable for bonding and riveting.
