Original Equipment

  • Welded steel structure according to DIN 15435 - epoxy resin painting (2 coatings) - RAL 3000 final colouring.
  • Manganese phosphated pins.
  • Self-lubricating bushes on main joints.
  • Light alloy drums with asbestos free bonded linings.
  • Friction coefficient ?=0,42.
  • Braking torque scale indicator.

Operation

  • The WESTCAR drum and disc brakes are negative type.
  • The braking force is obtained by a spring, this one through a lever system, actuating the braking pad against the drum/disc
  • An electrohydraulic or pneumatic thrustor is used to win the spring compression and opening the brake.
  • The braking force of the linings against the drum can be modulated by adjusting the spring compression.
  • Braking torque changes depending on the spring force modulation.

Optionals

  • Automatic wear compensation (RG).
  • Linings max wear indicator (fitted on rod) (FCU).
  • Open brake indicator, either fitted on thrustor or on spring set (to be specified) (FCA).
  • Larger drum (50% wider) (L).
