Bendix leads the way with expanded brake pad coverage for popular Chinese vehicles

Chinese brands are becoming prominent on new car sales charts, and Bendix is continually expanding its friction solutions for these vehicles, giving mechanics and owners a cost effective and high performing alternative to genuine pads.

Recently, Bendix has released many new brake pad variations within its EV-Hybrid™, 4WD/SUV™, HD™ and General CT™ ranges, covering marques including BYD, GWM, Haval, Chery and LDV.

Bendix has grown its range of brake pads to suit Chinese vehicles, with new options from its EV-Hybrid™, 4WD/SUV™, HD™ and General CT™ product lines now available.

EV-Hybrid™
For BYD, more front and rear EV-Hybrid™ pads have been developed to suit selected electric ATTO 3, DOLPHIN, SEAL and the PHEV SEALION 6. New front and rear options from the EV-Hybrid™ range are also available for the electric GWM Ora.

Locally designed at Bendix’s Ballarat R&D facility to suit the needs of EV and hybrid electric braking systems, EV-Hybrid™ pads feature copper-free, organic brake friction material that sees them certified to the Automotive Aftermarket Suppliers Association (AASA) ‘N’ rating, meaning the pads contain less than 0.5 of copper by weight.

4WD/SUV™
Increasingly popular with off roaders, GWM’s Tank 300 and 500 are other models that Bendix has targeted, offering new front and rear options within both its HD™ and 4WD/SUV™ product lines. There are also greater front and rear pad choices in the 4WD/SUV™ range to suit Haval H6 and LDV D90, while additional HD™ options can now be chosen for LDV Deliver 9 models including dual wheel variants.

4WD/SUV™ pads are specifically formulated for 4WD and SUVs – both on and off road – and provide excellent low noise and dust performance and reduced brake fade at higher temperatures. They also benefit from Bendix’s Titanium Stripe technology which provides instant positive pedal feel and smooth predictable braking straight from the box.

HD™  
Perfect for vehicles that operate at high-loads and are engaged in frequent start and stop traffic during deliveries and other work, Bendix Heavy Duty™ pads are designed to last longer – up to twice as long as standard all-purpose pads – in high temperature conditions and also feature Bendix’s unique Blue Titanium Stripe.

General CT™
Coverage of Bendix’s General CT™ pads has grown as well, with extra front pad choices for BYD SEAL and SEALION 6; additional front and rear pads for Haval’s Jolion and H6, and new front and rear pad variants for the Chery Omoda 5 and Tiggo 7.

General CT™ Brake Pads feature proven compounds that deliver reliable and secure stopping performance, coupled with a smooth and consistent pedal feel. Other qualities include noise and vibration absorbing shims for added driver and passenger comfort and Blue Titanium Stripe technology.

Owners of BYD, GWM, Haval, Chery and LDV cars can choose from an expanded range of quality Bendix brake pads.
