Bremskerl North America, a subsidiary of BREMSKERL REIBBELAGWERKE EMMERLING GMBH & CO. KG, a global manufacturer of friction material for rail, industrial and commercial vehicle markets since 1929, has introduced a fullline of air disc brake pads for the North American market.  

Bremskerl eco-friendly air disc brake padsBremskerl’s premium 8010 formulation is supplied at both the OE and aftermarket level and provides lower wear of the pad and disc rotor when compared with other OE and aftermarket manufacturers, the company claims. In addition, Bremskerl says the brake pad material is low-dusting, low-noise and provides excellent stopping performance.  Bremskerl 8010 is currently in use on truck/trailer, transit, coach bus, fire truck and refuse applications.  

According to the company, the eco-friendly brake pads contain less than 5 percent copper content, meeting new legislative requirements in both Washington State and California. They are also 100 percent asbestos-free and are RoHS- and REACH-compliant, which are key chemical and safety regulations in Europe.

Bremskerl’s air disc brake pad program includes 20 SKUs covering brake systems produced both domestically and abroad. The full line of Bremskerl disc brake pads is stocked at the company’s Illinois warehouse and available from distributors in the U.S. and Canada.

Toyota’s original Land Cruiser was the company’s version of a Jeep that could go anywhere. In its time it was highly rated and collected, which led the Japanese juggernaut to bring back an updated SUV in 2007 called the FJ Cruiser. The retro-styled vehicle was again a go anywhere machine powered by a 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE) used in the Tacoma. The engines are durable and considered relatively robust for the time.

Long-Life Coolants Explained

Different types of coolants cover a range of applications from diesel to domestic, Asian and European vehicles. Each one is formulated to a specific manufacturer’s specifications to keep their engines at an optimal temperature. But, changes to the old one-size-fits-all formula has led to confusion for consumers and even some technicians.

Diagnosing Intelligent Cooling Systems

The majority of cooling systems on the roads react to what is happening inside the combustion chamber. After the engine is stressed, the heat causes the thermostat to open. Increases in temperatures will also cause the cooling fans to come on. The heat carried by the coolant is the trigger for operation of the fans and thermostat.

Modern Cooling System Design: It’s Not About Temperature; It’s About Powertrain

Given the advanced state of internal combustion engine technology, some recent cooling system innovations will actually increase engine torque and fuel economy while reducing exhaust emissions. Let me simplify that idea: new cooling system technology will make engines run better and cleaner. So, let’s get on the same page by reviewing some basics.
