Uno Minda, a leading Tier 1 supplier of proprietary automotive solutions to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), has introduced its latest Heavy Duty Organic Brake Pads with Shim in the Indian aftermarket. Designed to enhance road safety, reliability, and performance, the new brake pads aim to address growing concerns over substandard braking components in the industry.
Addressing Safety Concerns in the Aftermarket
Effective braking is crucial for vehicle performance and road safety. However, many brake pads available in the aftermarket fail to meet essential quality standards, increasing safety risks and long-term maintenance costs. A significant issue arises with brake pads that lack essential materials like shim, which can lead to premature wear of brake rotors, reduced braking efficiency, and higher repair expenses.

The brake pads are engineered to provide safer stopping distances, giving drivers greater control on the road.
