FS20 FLEET A premium grade brake lining designed for 20,000 lb axle load applications 554 800.223.5201 www.MarathonBrake.com 554 FS20 FLEET Marathon’s Fleet Star FS20 lining is a premium quality material designed to deliver dependable stopping power with a long lining Hi-Density Friction life. Ideal for over-the-road freight, general hauling and other One of the most significant design characteristics of any heavy standard heavy-duty vocations that do not require a severe service duty brake lining is its density. When higher quality and heavier lining. With excellent stopping power and resistance to fading, FS20 raw materials are used in a lining’s formulation, it creates a higher meets Federal regulations in accordance with FMVSS 121 test mass in the block or stated another way, higher density. Truck procedure and is rated for 20,000 lb axle loads. In addition, FS20 brakes are designed to convert the energy of a moving vehicle meets NHTSA requirements for reduced stopping distance (RSD). into heat energy. A higher density increases the lining’s ability to efficiently handle heat, and is the most critical component FS20 linings feature the Hi-Density Marathon formulation in a friction material’s fade, recovery and wear . (detailed at right) that will improve your bottom line through better performance and fewer maintenance headaches. I Higher density friction materials have the ability to hold more heat energy and therefore more efficiently dissipate the heat FLEET FS20 Delivers I Higher density friction materials have stronger structural integrity, making them less likely to crack I Hi-Density formulation for excellent heat dissipation in service, while riveting or due to rust jacking I Dependable stopping performance I Higher density linings exhibit significantly better wear I Excellent brake fade and recovery characteristics, especially at higher temperatures characteristics I Higher density friction materials are more resistant I Works on a broad range of to brake fade and water fade over-the road hauling applications I Extremely drum friendly I Meets NHTSA requirements for RSD – reduced stopping distance FMVSS 121 Test Results Brake Effectiveness Brake Power 0.80 120 110 0.70 100 See the difference... 0.60 90 ) i higher density s 80 p n 0.50 ( o i 70 e t r a Marathon linings u d 0.40 s 60 r s a t e r e 50 tip the scale vs. P R 0.30 r i 40 A leading competitor 0.20 30 20 0.10 10 0.00 0 1 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 100 Air Pressure (psi) Snub Number Th e Marathon Advanta ge...
