Thermal Swell, Growth, and Hot Compressibility of Brake Friction Materials and Noise Insulators
This document specifies a **universal method** of measuring the thickness change of friction materials to determine the effects of temperature. The test applies to both disc and drum-type linings commonly used in hydraulic and air brake systems for automotive or commercial vehicle applications.
This document describes several methods for thermal swell and growth.
Method A is recommended for disc brake pad assemblies, noise insulators, or flat coupons, while Method B is recommended for curved drum brake linings.
This document also describes how to test the warmed-up disc brake pads and noise insulators for hot compressibility using Method A.
