High quality that only Hitachi can provide, used by car manufacturers around the world
Hitachi Astemo uses an ideal friction material that has improved wear resistance, squealing performance, and low brake dust performance compared to the basic NAO material.
Because Hitachi's brake pads use high-quality friction materials, this fade phenomenon is less likely to occur, and the coefficient of friction remains stable from the early stages of braking, when the pad's temperature drops, to the final stage, when the temperature rises. Excellent braking performance is maintained even when the brakes are used frequently, such as on long downhill slopes, allowing the driver to control deceleration as desired.
