Excessive brake wear on tanker trucks, which transport a variety of liquids ranging from water and fuel to hazardous chemicals, is a significant safety concern that necessitates vigilant attention and rigorous maintenance protocols. The nature of their cargo often results in high gross vehicle weights, which can exert substantial stress on braking systems during transportation. The liquid cargo’s shifting weight, particularly when not fully loaded, can impact the vehicle’s handling and braking efficiency, making it more susceptible to jackknifing or loss of control. This dynamic underscores the necessity for tanker trucks to have highly reliable and responsive brake systems. The use of premium brake components that can withstand the heavy-duty demands of tanker operations is critical for enhancing overall safety and performance.
By employing brake components treated with Power Brake’s Diamond Technology, braking will be significantly safer. Maintenance costs will also be substantially reduced with brake components lasting many times longer.
Some of the main benefits you will receive from Diamond Technology ambulance brakes are:
- Brake failure prevention
- Improved safety and performance
- Prevents brake sticking in cold weather
- Eliminates drag between brake rotor and brake pads
- Lowered labor costs
