Beck/Arnley Introduces New Brake Pad Category
SMYRNA, Tenn., Feb. 20, 2008 – Beck/Arnley announced today it has added a category of foreign branded brake pads to its brake and chassis product module. This category will complement the existing range of Beck/Arnley brand OE replacement pads and Axxis brand brake pads. The brake pads will be sourced from leading foreign suppliers and provide the foreign nameplate specialist with another first-rate foreign brand. This is an important consideration in a segment that can be as emotional as it is technical.
The first product in this new brake category is from Sumitomo (SEI) Brake Systems, Inc., an OE supplier, and Japan’s first disc brake manufacturer. The company offers premium brakes for automotive applications that provide excellent heat dissipation and stable braking action.
“We are pleased to introduce this new category of foreign brand brake pads as it further expands our range of product offerings to fill the evolving needs of our foreign nameplate customers,” said Sona Grubbs, product manager for brakes. “We will be adding other brake pad suppliers for Asian and European applications in the near future.”
