Bendix first to market with new brake pads for PY Ranger, Everest and Staria

As part of its ongoing commitment to offering Australian and New Zealand motorists with high quality yet cost-effective aftermarket braking solutions, Bendix has released new brake pads for the latest Ford PY Ranger and Everest, as well as Hyundai Staria vans and people movers.

The new Ranger and Everest are now covered by Bendix’s popular 4WD disc brake pad range (both front and rear). These pads are engineered for extreme conditions and hardworking 4WD applications and feature Enhanced Phenolic Resin (EPR), which increases material strength and heat resistance at high temperatures.

For owners of the visually striking Hyundai Staria models, on offer are front and rear pads from Bendix’s General CT and Heavy Duty ranges.

The General CT pads feature proven compounds that deliver reliable and secure stopping performance, coupled with a smooth and consistent pedal feel. Other benefits include noise and vibration absorbing shims for added driver and passenger comfort.

Designed specifically for working vehicles that are often carrying loads and working in demanding start and stop operating conditions, Bendix’s Heavy Duty pads feature an exclusive insulation layer for cooler braking and longer life, helping to reduce vehicle running costs. This ‘insulayer’ lies between the backing plate and friction material assisting the adhesion of friction material to the backing plate and minimising heat transfer.

Both ranges also feature Bendix’s Blue Titanium Stripe technology, which provides superior stopping power ‘out of the box’ without the need for bedding in.

Further range extensions

Along with these exciting new releases for Ranger, Everest and Staria, Bendix has increased its coverage of many other models – these include new components for GWM Cannon, Haval H6, LDV G10, RAM 1500 Classic, Mercedes Benz Sprinter, Suzuki Jimny, Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator, Holden Astra, Ford Fiesta and the Hyundai i30 sedan.
