Carbon - Carbon brakes...
A good one because I have been to DABS and have seen how Dunlop make the damm things..
A Rotor / Stator is manufactured by compressed (by a bolted press) layers of carbon fibre weave being subjected in an oven at 1000 deg F (+/- 2) in a hard vacumn, to a supply of methane gas. the gas breaks down, allowing the Hydrogen to combine with any Oxygen (and purify it out as water) and Carbon to cross link the fibres (as the SECOND CARBON!) This process takes four weeks. the stacks are then weighted and reversed back into the same process to equal the process out for all units in that autoclave. The discs are then have a graphite process before they are machine finished.. I also had the free lunch to prove it.
Cancer?? Were did that come from???
Silicon Carbide? Unless DABS have changed their processes.
Flare Idle.. Were did you get your facts from??
Carbon Fibre particles may have the same effect as Asbestos (nobody is sure, but again nobody can say it doesn't!)
People picking up crashed Harriers, wear respirators to stop inhalating fibre particles contaminated with burnt thermosetting polymer residue (that certainly is cariogenic!
)
Hot Brakes = Blown Fusible plugs = Wheel change, when you want that push back to make that slot time!
