quality linings, available exclusively to members of the VIPAR network, deliver consistent
stopping power for every application, and are available at an economical price.
Now, there’s a great reason to take another look at the VIPro by Bendix program.
Bendix has brought their reman brake shoe operations in house. So, VIPro by Bendix

same rigorous standards required by Bendix and their OEs.

Bendix delivers OE quality in a reman brake shoe.

Quality in every detail.
Every shoe is coined, a process that returns the shoe to OEM tolerances. Our next generation
coatings combat corrosion and virtually eliminate rust jacking. To select high quality, durable
friction we go beyond industry standard friction testing to conduct our own proprietary testing.
Our OE process helps prevent the problems associated with cracking, as well as loose lining
and rivets. To confirm that our shoes meet our standards and deliver reliable performance,
our inspection and testing procedures go beyond industry norms. With more than 75,000
shoes readily available in inventory and three North American distribution centers, our
customers have fast and easy access to the products they need.
