Wear of cast iron brake blocks in brake dynamometer tests (TN-FM-45)

Last updated on 25 April 2014 3:37
Previous brake dynamometer tests, carried out by B.R. showed that the basic wear properties of conventional (C) and very high phosphorus (VHP) cast iron brake blocks were very similar but that the latter produced a higher coefficient of friction during braking. These results were in partial disagreement with the findings...
