Additionally, our innovative PlatinumShield™ coating technology is available on some brake shoes to resist Rust-Jacking and provide extended brake shoe life and lasting value for our customers.

Our mission is to not only meet contemporary braking standards, but to keep advancing the cause of safety, wherever it may lead.
