General
BPW brake discs
With the introduction of IBD brake discs (IBD = Internal
ventilation/permanent brake), the tried and proven BPW
design of the collar disc has been further improved.
Further development has focused on the regulation of
thermal ef ciency in order to optimise wear characteris-
tics and to increase reliability.
The quality of brake discs is the result of a combination
of the shape of the design, the materials used and the
quality of the mechanical machining.
The chemical composition of the material alloy is in par-
ticular responsible for a large number of properties, and
hence determines some essential product features.
BPW has taken these technological infl uences into ac-
count for many years in the development of brake discs,
matching them to the requirements on the trailer.
BPW brake disc - IBD version
Original BPW brake discs of er the following
advantages:
Increased surface area for ef ective heat
dissipation
Optimisation of material for improved heat
distribution over the surface of the disc
Venturi contour for optimal internal air fl ow
Matched to the optimised BPW brake linings
High resistance to wear
Simplifi ed spare parts supply thanks to uniform
brake discs for 0 and 120 of sets
