– Background Information Advanced Braking Technology Ltd (ASX: ABV)
Perth-based Advanced Braking Technology Ltd (ASX: ABV) is dedicated to innovative braking systems. The Company’s key asset is the Sealed Integrated Braking System (SIBS™), a comprehensively patented Australian invention.
SIBS™ is a fully enclosed, single rotor, high speed wet brake. The brake rotor runs in a bath of oil that serves to cool the brake and minimize wear at the braking interface. An innovative fail safe feature is incorporated into the rear axle brake. As a result, the brakes are virtually wear and maintenance-free and may outlast the vehicles they are fitted to, unlike conventional drum and disc brakes. SIBS™ brakes deliver unparalleled safety, improved productivity and lower operating costs, and are engineered to survive the world’s harshest conditions.
The proven technology is also environmentally friendly, eliminating brake dust emissions and noise and squealing, and provides a wide-range of benefits for on-road, off-road and industrial applications in terms of safety, reliability, performance and adaptability.
