Jurid Brakes Added to E-Catalogs for Easier Part Number Look Up

Newly introduced to North American customers, Jurid brake pads will now be available in domestic catalogs - including the Bendix iParts e-catalog as well as in popular third party e-catalogs beginning in June.

Newly introduced to North American customers, Jurid brake pads will now be available in domestic catalogs – including the Bendix iParts e-catalog found at www.bendixbrakes.com as well as in popular third party e-catalogs beginning in June.

“Getting up-to-date part numbers listed in e-catalogs that our North American customers use will make it easy to locate the appropriate part number and place an order,” said Jim Kelley, director of sales, U.S., for friction materials, a business unit of Honeywell International.         

Friction Materials originally announced Jurid’s North American introduction at the AAPEX Show, and since then, has focused on ensuring that the proper list of part numbers is offered and access to data is easy for their customers to obtain.

There is already comprehensive coverage for a number of popular European applications, and more models are being added every month. The line consists of OE specified low-metallic brake pads with OE-style shims, hardware, backing plates, chamfers and slots. In addition, wire wear sensors are available if the OE application calls for it.  

“We are excited that the Jurid brand introduction in North America is now official,” said Kelley. “It is a well-known and very reputable product line and we think our customers will be very pleased with our offering.”  

Jurid products have been original equipment in the world’s leading cars since 1914. They are an OE supplier to companies such as Mercedes Benz, BMW, Jaguar, Volvo, Audi and Volkswagen. In Europe alone, one in three vehicles use Jurid, and more than 80 million disc brake pads and drum brake linings are produced every year.  

For more details on the Jurid brand launch in North America, distributors should contact their Friction Materials sales representative, call (800) 231-3726 or e-mail [email protected]. For information on Bendix brake products, distributors and technicians can log on to www.bendixbrakes.com.

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.
