As of now, Wulf Gaertner Autoparts AG supplies brake pads with a newly formulated friction material mix. On account of the changing requirements that premium-class models and vans impose on state-of-the-art brake technology the Hamburg-based company’s in-house engineers have developed the MEYLE Platinum Pads designed to offer uncompromising driving comfort and unrivalled performance.

In numerous real-time tests MEYLE Platinum Pads have demonstrated their supremacy. To reduce environmental impact resulting from brake pad scuff latest-generation MEYLE Platinum Pads – like the preceding models – do not use copper or any other heavy metal. Extensive real-time tests carried out at professional test grounds testify to the MEYLE brakes’ outstanding brake behaviour and friction coefficient.

Car technicians can find valuable advice on the removal and installation of brake pads in a new video of the “The MEYLE Mechanics” on the company’s “MEYLE TV” YouTube channel. Besides many useful tips from the field, the video explains why it is advisable to use ceramic paste instead of copper paste to grease the calliper bracket.
