Tackle Rust Jacking with Total Protection

Rust jacking presents a real threat to brake shoes…shortening service life by causing cracked friction. Once friction is cracked, it’s unsafe and must be replaced, often while there’s plenty of friction life remaining. That’s wasted money, compounded by labor costs and downtime…to say nothing of the risk to your CSA (Compliance, Safety, and Accountability) scores.

Coatings

Many brake shoe suppliers tout their premium coatings and claim that’s all you need for excellent protection against rust jacking. As a full service OE supplier, Bendix knows that rust jacking is about much more than coatings. Bendix® reman shoes, featuring ProteXTM coatings, bring all the key elements together to give you the industry’s most comprehensive protection against rust jacking and cracked friction.

ProteX Bendix ProteX coatings are engineered to stand up to contaminants like road salts, chemicals, and moisture and they’re proven in the lab and more importantly, on the road. After ProteX coatings are applied, shoes are then precision cured in a controlled environment, to provide guaranteed coating performance and industry-leading protection.

Corrosion

High Flexural Strength Friction

Low-quality friction has lower ﬂ exural strength, so it’s brittle and cracks under the pressure of rust jacking. Unlike many brake shoe manufacturers, Bendix only selects friction with high ﬂ exural strength that resists cracking. Cracked friction not only diminishes your stopping power, it also impacts your CSA scores. Regardless of your application or budget, you can choose with conﬁ dence from a full range of solid friction offerings, from economy to OE grade, including the industry’s ﬁ rst RSD-Certiﬁ ed aftermarket friction.

Coining We coin 100% of our shoes to correct the distortions that result from thousands of brake applications and return the shoe to OE geometry. A properly shaped shoe will precisely match the friction block, so there’s less of an entry point for contaminants to enter and allow corrosion to take hold. Plus, a coined shoe ﬁ ts the drum properly, for better brake performance and friction wear.

For true value, your brake shoes should deliver reliable performance, safety and long service life. But not every shoe is built like a Bendix. With ProteX coatings, the right friction, and coining, Bendix shoes protect you — on multiple fronts — from the conditions that cause rust jacking. We’ve got you covered, so you can count on durable, reliable performance for reduced downtime and lower total cost of ownership. And the peace of mind that comes from going with the brake experts.
