AUSTIN, TX – Brake components manufacturer Precision Fleet Brakes has introduced cryogenic brake technology for fleet vehicles.

A revolutionary way to treat brake pads and rotors through the use of very low temperatures, cryogenically processed brake components can have an extended life of up to four times longer than original equipment, according to the company.

Precision Fleet Brakes is a partnership of three companies backed by a team that includes experts in the fields of physics, metallurgy, cryogenics and automotive.

“Our fleet customers demand a lot from their vehicles, and keeping downtime to a minimum is one of the biggest challenges they face,” said Zane McCarthy, president and CEO of Precision Fleet Brakes. “Our state-of-the-art cryogenic processing system allows us to produce brake pads and rotors that can take the punishment of brutal braking and environmental wear while keeping vehicles on the road longer between brake jobs.”

McCarthy continued, "When you consider the longer life of our products and factor in the reduced downtime and replacement costs, you actually gain a 40 percent lower per-mile cost in parts and a 60 percent lower per-mile cost in labor.”

Precision Fleet Brakes conforms to or exceeds the material specs of SAE J431 and SAE G3000.
