Z Numbers Have Now Been Recognized

The Friction Materials Standards Institute (FMSI) has just updated its industry-standard part numbering system to indicate brake pads that are specified by OE’s to use mechanical attachment. These are indicated by a ‘Z’ designation.

See Why All NRS Brake Pads Have Always Been Mechanically Attached

Right out of the box, Galvanized NRS Brakes have a technology you can see. Rust resistant, unpainted Galvanized Steel that incorporates an award winning attachment technology called NRSTM

Instead of adhesives, our brake pads have In-situ galvanized hooks - called NRSTM on the backing-plate surface. These hooks provide a mechanical retention of the friction material, overcoming inadequacies of adhesive usage.

This guarantees that the friction material will never delaminate, providing a longer life and safer brake operation for the entire life of the pad.
