Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
SAE Recommended Practice
1. Scope-This specification covers brake linings used
						  on motor vehicles operated on the public ways, except those used only for
						  parking brakes. The performance requirements outlined in this SAE Recommended
						  Practice are based on currently available engineering data. It is intended that
						  all portions of this recommended practice will be reviewed periodically and
						  revised as additional knowledge regarding brake lining performance is
						  developed.
2. Purpose-The purpose of this SAE Recommended Practice
						  is to establish minimum coefficient of friction requirements for brake linings
						  used in the service brake system of a motor vehicle. Linings that meet these
						  minimum friction requirements may not be suitable for use on all vehicles
						  because of differences in brake design or application.
3. Test Procedures-Five complete tests shall be
						  conducted on each brake lining in accordance with the SAE J661.
4. Brake Lining Evaluation-Brake linings shall be
						  evaluated for normal and hot friction coefficients in accordance with SAE
						  J866.
5. Minimum Requirements-To meet minimum requirements a
						  brake lining shall have:
5.1. A normal friction coefficient over .25 based on
						  the average of five tests.
5.2. A hot friction coefficient over .15 based on the
						  average of five tests.
5.3. A coefficient of friction of .15 or over on each
						  of the five tests at the following points:
5.3.1. Between 200F and 550F, inclusive, on the second
						  fade run.
5.3.2. Between 300F and 200F, inclusive, on the second
						  recovery run.
5.4. Not more than a 20% or .050 variation of
						  coefficient of friction, whichever is greater, below the average value of all
						  five tests at each temperature point specified in paragraph 5.3.
(Report of SAE Brake Committee approved January
						  1968.)
