MEYLE is now offering MEYLE PD brake pads with refined friction material mix to fit a wide range of van models, including the Mercedes Sprinter, VW Crafter and Ford Transit.

Brake pads used on vans are subject to heavy load and stress levels which often results in early part wear and reduced braking performance. This means fleets not only face the cost of premature replacement but as every van operator knows ‘time is money’ and every workshop visit means costly van downtime.
For this reason the new generation of MEYLE-PD brake pads for vans features a highly wear-resistant friction material mix designed to offer extended brake pad life. In the best of cases, vans equipped with the new rugged MEYLE-PD brake pad will only come to the workshop for routine vehicle inspection rather than unscheduled brake replacement.

The new MEYLE-PD brake pads for vans feature triple-layer damping shims attached to the brake pad backing using a special adhesive with advanced damping properties. These shims are designed to neutralise vibration and prevent the infamous brake squeal. To reduce the amount of noxious substances released into the environment as a result of brake pad wear, the newly formulated MEYLE-PD brake pad for vans does not employ copper or any other heavy metal additives , as is the case for MEYLE-PD brake pad for passenger cars.

MEYLE says the new MEYLE-PD brake pads are extensively tested and are ECE R90 type-approved. They are available for many applications including the Mercedes Sprinter, VW Crafter, Citroën Jumper, Opel Movano, Renault Master, Ford Transit and Iveco Daily.

MEYLE and MEYLE HD parts are available from stockist nationwide and are distributed in Ireland by Strongline Autoparts Limited. For more information call 01-462-4631.
