Disc Pads
for Medium-Duty Applications
High Performance Brake Pads For
Hydraulic Brake Fleet Applications
Uncompromising Performance, Outstanding Value
Today, we are all investigating new ways to better manage
overall costs without sacrifi cing performance and quality.
When it comes to brake maintenance,
we have the Formula! Formula Blue
®
disc pads
from Bendix Spicer Foundation Brake were
developed specifi cally for the demanding
applications found in todays light- and
medium-duty fl eets.
Formula Blue
®
medium-duty pads use only
proven friction material formulations that raise
the bar on performance and value. Formula Blue
®
pads are available in formulations that meet the needs
of hydraulic braked fl eet vehicles including the most
demanding medium-duty applications on the road today.
Thoroughly Tested, Field Proven
Performance
Formula Blue
®
friction formulations were tested against
other brake pads marketed to fl eets operating a variety
of hydraulic braked vehicles in three testing scenarios.
The results confi rm that Formula Blue
®
medium-duty
disc pads feature superior, balanced performance versus
other leading brands in terms of rotor and pad wear, fade
and recovery, and braking effectiveness.
Made In The USA
Formula Blue
®
medium-duty disc pads are quality made in
the USA and built using ISO TS16949 certifi ed processes.
They feature a unique pad-to-plate mechanical anchoring
design and are fi eld-proven through millions of miles of
on-the-road experience in a variety of vocations and
environments.

saves time and money by
reducing rotor wear
More robust friction
performance in demanding
vocations with less

environments
Outstanding stopping
power, long-wearing and
quiet-running designs to
meet all the demanding
requirements
Rotor and Pad Wear
The rotor wear and pad loss tests measure the difference
in pad/rotor thickness from the beginning to the end of
the dynamometer evaluation. Rotor thickness and pad
loss were measured in inches, and the best performers
had the lower measurements in each test.
The Formula Blue
®
medium-duty premium pads proved
out their advanced engineering by delivering an
optimized balance of friction couple wear. By optimizing
pad and rotor wear, Formula Blue
®
pads are able to
deliver the delicate balance of stopping performance and
brake life to lower the operating cost in the widest variety
of hydraulic brake applications. Formula Blue
®
pads
provide the winning combination of pad and rotor wear
in independent lab tests, on the job and in your fl eet.
®®
®®
Rotor Wear Comparisons
Pad Loss Comparisons
Consistent braking performance plus optimized Pad
and Rotor wear equals safety, less down time, and
reduced fl eet operating cost – now that’s the Formula;
Formula Blue
®
disc pads.
Braking Effectiveness
Brake pad effectiveness was determined by measuring
the ratio between the pad-to-rotor output torque and
the pressure applied to the brake pedal. The brake
effectiveness ratio is summarized as an average and a
range of three dynamometer effectiveness test segments.
For hydraulic disc brake pads, effectiveness should be a
value between 0 and 1 (the higher the better), with the
typical range being between 0.25 and 0.35. The ideal
range score is zero.
Formula Blue
®
pads were in the group of four out of fi ve
pads tested that achieved optimal effectiveness while
providing the most consistent performance as evidenced
by the lowest test range. Fleets need brake pads that
they can count on stop after stop, Formula Blue
®
pads
deliver this peace of mind allowing you to focus on your
deliveries.

Braking Effectiveness
Fade and Recovery
During brake fade analysis, tests quantify the amount
of decrease in a lining’s braking torque as a function of
temperature and/or speed at a constant application
force. The recovery test assesses the ability of a brake
lining to recover braking torque as compared to the
torque registered before the fade test.
In this analysis, the best performers have lower/controlled
fade and achieve the recovery torque values closest to 100
percent of the pre-test values. Comparing the Formula
Blue
®
pads against four other premium-brand medium-
duty pads, the results clearly favor the Formula Blue
®
disc
pad, registering the second lowest fade number (<10%)
and second best recovery fi gure (105%) among the pads
tested.
