Bronze clutch facings by Carlisle Brake & Friction's VelveTouch brand, are the answer for a wide variety of trucks, tractors, buses, and many types of industrial equipment. The excellent thermal conductivity of these facings carries heat away from the friction surface to help avoid heat checks and warpage. VelveTouch facings run cooler, and therefore, last longer, several times longer than that of organic materials. Bronze facings contain no organic materials or binders and they will not deteriorate or burn in oil. Measured by the miles they deliver, VelveTouch facings cost less.
