Handling the strenuous speeds and loads uniquely associated with truck operations, truck brake discs are specially engineered for performance. These discs are constructed using high-carbon cast iron making them thicker and larger than car brake discs. This is necessary to withstand greater mechanical stress and heat. Additionally, enhanced ventilation along with cooling channels also reduce the chances of brake fade or overheating. Performing optimally guarantees crucial safety for the driver and truck as well as minimizing downtime caused by brake failures
