YOUR CERTIFIED PARTNER ON THE ROAD
Emark ECE R90 by VCA:
Hardex® has obtained ECE R90 certification, which is required for all brake products to be used throughout the European Union and other countries that have adopted to ECE regulations.
AMECA:
Hardex® has been granted the AMECA certification, which is in compliance with applicable United States standards.
ISO/TS & ISO 9001:
Hardex Brakes Canada’s manufacturing facility is certified under ISO/TS 16949:2009 and ISO 9001:2008
Positive Molding Technology is an important factor in production of HARDEX® products. Positive molding results in a more uniform density in the production of the brake pad. It also allows using less resin content in formulation of the brake pad which can lead to improvement in the fading characteristic of the brake pad. The brake pads produced by positive molding process is proven to have much better stopping performance. High resin increases fading, which can increase stopping distances up to 50%.
All HARDEX® brake pads are manufactured using the same positive molding process utilized by Original Equipment suppliers. Positive molding uses extreme pressure to compress the friction material and bond it to the backing plate. This process assures consistent friction material density throughout the pad, resulting in even wear and performance characteristics throughout the life of the brake pad.
POSITIVE MOLDING TECHNOLOGY MAIN FEATURES:
-
Maintains constant friction consistency
-
Ensures better braking performance
-
Delivers longer service life
-
Requires less resin material
-
Resists heat fade
In addition to these features, Hardex® has introduced a Coating Layer to its brake pads. The objective of the OE STC is to improve performance and extend the lifespan of the brake pads. Traditionally, the OE STC comprises a ceramic-based substance administered to the brake pad surface during manufacturing.
This coating procedure heightens crucial friction performance metrics.
The OE STC diminishes noise and optimizes performance for both brake pads and disc rotors.
OE STC MAIN FEATURES:
-
Reduced Noise: OE STC can help reduce noise generated during braking.
-
Improved Wear Resistance: The material in the coating can provide increased resistance to wear and abrasion.
-
Enhanced Heat Dissipation: The coating can help dissipate heat more efficiently.
-
Better Performance: OE STC can improve braking performance.
LOW-METALLIC BRAKE PADS FEATURES:
-
40,000 to 50,000 km lifetime
-
100% asbestos free formula
-
Superior heat transfer and resistance in all driving conditions
-
Exceptionally long brake pad and rotor life
-
Outstanding braking performance for heavy load vehicles
-
Economical and reliable
-
No break-in needed
-
Substantial reduction in dust

HARDEX® PREMIUM
LOW-METALLIC BRAKE PADS
In today’s high horsepower vehicle, nothing is more important than the brake system. If you have noticed strange noises or squeaking when braking, unusual shaking when you apply the brakes, or uneven pulling to one side, these might be indications of worn brakes that need to be replaced. Hardex® is a leader in brake technology and has the experience to deliver premium low-metallic brake pads that promotes better heat transfer, providing quality braking every time.
EXCEPTIONAL BRAKING TECHNOLOGY
Hardex® Premium Low-Metallic Brakes Pads are made from an organic formula combined with small amounts of metal that help with heat transfer to offer improved braking. They are designed to keep wheels exceptionally clean, and deliver first-rate stopping power in a shorter stopping range. Exceedingly rotor friendly, these brake pads are ultra-quiet with no break-in required. Delivering the ultimate performance and the safest braking experience, our high performance low-metallic brake pads are 100% asbestos free and made with first-rate brake friction material, providing optimal heat resistance for all kinds of driving conditions and weather.
GET YOUR BRAKES CHECKED
Having your brakes checked at least once a year will ensure they run safely, and smoothly and helpavoid expensive replacements. However, if you notice squeaking, squealing, or grinding sounds, jerking to one side, or if your brake or anti-lock braking system (ABS) warning light comes on, it is important to get your brakes checked immediately.
