Tesla now covered by Bendix EV-Hybrid pad range

July 2023

Reference Releases

According to industry sales data, Tesla’s Model 3 and Model Y are the best-selling electric cars in Australia and New Zealand, and Bendix has moved to meet this growing demand, announcing new disc brake pads to suit these popular models.

Part of a recent expansion of its EV-Hybrid range, the latest additions – which are available in both front and rear sets – were specifically designed locally for Tesla Model 3 and Model Y.


The organic friction material used in the EV-Hybrid disc brake pads comprise a range of ingredients including synthetic glass fibres, aramid fibres and natural organic fibres as the main reinforcing elements. Added to these are organic modifiers and binding resins. Together they deliver strong stopping power, and low noise and dust emissions while providing low environmental impact.

The copper-free organic brake friction materials used in the pads are certified to the Automotive Aftermarket Suppliers’ Association (AASA) ‘N’ rating. This rating confirms Bendix EV-Hybrid disc brake pads contain less than 0.5 percent of copper by weight and permits Bendix to use the AASA LeafMark™ ‘N’ icon.


Certification as ‘N’ rated under the AASA LeafMark™ backs Bendix’s commitment to copper-free brake pads, to minimise environmental impact. The AASA LeafMark™ for friction materials represents one of the most stringent environmental standards for brake materials and the Bendix EV-Hybrid material has been tested and accredited by an independent lab and certified to meet this high standard.


Further adding to the pads’ green credentials is their packaging which does away with plastic shrink wrap in favour of Hexcel Wrap, a paper product that’s 100 per cent recyclable. Complementing the Hexcel Wrap is exterior packaging which is FSC™ Certified – this means that 70 per cent of the packaging comes from FSC™ certified or recycled materials, while 30 per cent is made from controlled wood.

Bendix EV-Hybrid disc brake pads are also available for other popular EV and Hybrid models from leading brands including Toyota, Lexus, Honda and Mitsubishi. Additional releases are planned in the coming months.
