With winter upon us, it is paramount that cars are fullyprepared for the winter, with ice, snow, plummeting temperatures and wetweather all causing havoc. Brake Engineering urges Garages and Motor factors toact now, to ensure stock levels are met to handle anticipated demand and to be‘winter ready’.

Many motorists are on ‘winter alert’ and are more likely toget their brakes checked if they experience squeaking noises orunder-performance on unpredictable, precarious road surfaces.

During poor weather, calipers are also prone to corrosiondue to more salt and grit being on the roads. This can damage seals and result in rust, causing replacement rates toincrease. To spot signs of wear and rust, technicians should always remove thewheel for closer inspection and diagnosis.

When remanufacturing brake calipers, Brake Engineering addsan anti-corrosion coating, which is key to preventing rust, peeling, andcorrosion, as well as being particularly temperature resistant, which isimperative during the colder months.

Each Brake Engineering piston has an improved anti-corrosioncoating and has undergone a 450-hour salt spray resistance test proving theirsuitability for use in cold climates, as well as having a hardness of500vickers. The piston surface finish is improved too and therefore reduceswear on the seals.

As braking is a safety critical product group, it’s crucialthat distributors and garages are confident they can supply and fit a productunderpinned by quality and reliability. A motor factor supplying parts througha credible source enables the origin of the parts to be easily traced. Thisfalls under motor factors’ duty of care to make sure that parts supplied togarages are safe and are of suitable quality – essential criteria for garages.

Adam Griffiths, Brake Engineering UK Marketing Lead, said:“As braking systems are integral to a motorist’s safety, it is essential thatboth garages and distributors trust a quality supplier of braking solutions.Our Original Aftermarket philosophy leaves the market assured of a correct fitof quality parts every time.”
