Short answer

FTC CV Brake Pads are rigid, moulded, asbestos-free semi-metallic pads for commercial vehicles. They have a high friction coefficient and a low rate of wear, free of toxic heavy metals, with constant friction and very good wear resistance for maximum mileage and minimum disc abrasion.

What brake pads do

Brake pads are the friction component in a disc-brake system. When you press the pedal, the caliper squeezes the pads against the spinning disc, converting the energy of motion into heat and slowing the wheel. The material the pad is made from decides how the car feels: how quickly it bites, how quiet it is, how much dust it leaves on the wheels, and how long it lasts.

FTC designs each pad line for a different kind of driver and vehicle, so you can match the compound to the job instead of compromising. Every line is made to original-equipment standards for fit, form and function.
