Brake pad grinding with EHWA BSL and electroplating wheels


The brake pad is a vehicle component that converts kinetic energy into thermal energy by acting on a brake disk or drum and thus decelerates the vehicle.

EHWA developed the so-called BSL wheels (“brazed single layer”) and conventional electroplating wheels for the surface treatment of brake pads. With BSL pads, the abrasive grains are brazed onto the grinding wheel in a single layer.

This type achieves significantly longer service lives compared to electroplated grinding wheels. In addition to the coating type, specially coated grit types are also good solutions for increasing service life and grinding performance.

  • High self-sharpening effect of the grains = high grinding performance

  • Segmented coating supports chip removal and cooling

  • Long lifetime = reduction in ancillary costs
