LOS ANGELES The Brake Man, a California-based manufacturer motorsport brake systems and components made in the U.S., says it is looking to expand into the fleet and passenger automotive markets.
Widely known in automotive racing circles for nearly two decades, The Brake Man is making its first formal step outside of the racing community this year.
The company's first foray into market expansion begins with the official rollout of SuperBrakes from The Brake Man, with coverage for virtually any application including passenger, performance, fleet and emergency cars and trucks. According to The Brake Man, SuperBrakes are ultra-quality, made-in-America, complete pad and rotor upgrades for stock brake systems that deliver three to five times more rotor life than OE parts while increasing overall braking performance by 30 percent. SuperBrakes are a direct replacement for factory components, requiring no modification, and they will not void any warranty, according to the company.
"The hallmark of our company has been extreme durability coupled with race-proven performance," said Warren Gilliland, founder, president and chief engineer of The Brake Man. "It is not uncommon for race teams to tell us they eliminated 80 percent of their brake maintenance and have not needed to replace a thing since switching to The Brake Man years ago."
The Brake Man says that SuperBrake rotors undergo a proprietary thermal Dynamogenic process that eliminates internal stresses found in most cast rotors. This increases rotor longevity and thermal capability while virtually eliminating warping, according to the company. SuperBrake pads are available in several compounds to meet specific vehicle needs for various fleet, performance, or personal cars and trucks. Each compound offers an improvement in torque output and pad life over similar stock or aftermarket compounds for more driver confidence and comfort, the company adds.
SuperBrakes are currently available through automotive aftermarket dealers and retailers or directly from the company. For more information, visit
