ENRICH BRAKES & GEAR: "BREATHE EASY"
Breathe easy using treated brakes knowing you reduce pollution and costs while increasing safety.
How?
Our proprietary treatment of “OEM and aftermarket” rotors or drums can reduce the wear of the brake wall thickness by 85%. This wear is directly proportional to heavy metal particulates easily seen covering the rims of a vehicle. ”This treatment simultaneously improves the performance and brake life by up to 300%”
Why Should You Care?
A 2014 study published by Environmental Science and Pollution Research titled “Brake wear particle emissions: a review” measured that 21% of emissions from roadway traffic are from brake dust. In comparison, tailpipe exhaust makes up only 7% of vehicle emissions. So regardless of diesel, gasoline, or electric vehicles, 21% of the pollution is caused by applying the brakes. If you consider the average life of the brake drums on a city’s garbage disposal truck is 30 days, the amount of heavy metal particulates at our doorstep is immense. The air we breathe is contaminated with harmful airborne metals that can have the same effects on the lungs as “black lung” or silicosis. According to a SAE J2115 test, Enrich Brakes and Gears provides a proven solution you can easily implement to reduce that point source today.

When was the last time a safety or environmental improvement saved you money? Our treatment not only reduces pollution but increases brake efficiency. Fleet managers can now help drivers, save on preventative maintenance, and increase equipment usability.
Over time, brake efficiency decreases, leading to increased stopping distances and safety concerns on vehicles such as school buses and public transportation. This is due to the friction of the brake pads or shoes wearing away the surface of the rotors or drums. That metal is in the form of a fine particulate that you often see as the black coating on the rims of your car.
This dust is being inhaled by all of us who live and travel on roadways. If not airborne, the rain washes brake dust and heavy metals into our local waterways. Inhaled into our lungs or washed into our rivers, brake dust has numerous negative impacts on our health.
Frequent brake maintenance requires skilled labor and expensive replacement parts which are becoming more difficult to source causing a financial burden on fleet owners, operators, and taxpayers.
For every 1 ton of steel made, it takes 3,527lbs of iron and 1,698lbs of coal. They also often include manganese, nickel, chromium, molybdenum, boron, titanium, vanadium, tungsten, cobalt, niobium, and until recent laws, copper is no longer allowed in brakes.
Our process is the last stop in creating the crucial difference in performance which tangibly prevents brake dust pollution. The most effective solution to combat the issues today is the treatment of the brakes a fleet is already using.
The simple answer, Enrich Brakes & Gears minimize the imperfections that cause fatigue.
To nerd out, the proprietary treatment utilizes nitrogen to bring the temperature of the materials down to temperatures that allow the crystal structure to realign. This highly controlled process reduces impurities from the material by altering the time and temperature curve, reducing the austenite remaining in the matrix, and completing the martensitic reaction. This treatment increases the wear properties ( such as abrasion, corrosion, and adhesive wear ) throughout the entirety of the item. This is not a surface coating like our competitors provide which loses benefits once the coating is worn off. Our treatment penetrates deeply into the entire part to ensure improved performance.
The Enrich Brakes & Gears process is reserved for new parts only. Benefits are not observed if the part has already been damaged. The treatment is not only for rotors and drums but the metal that backs the pads and shoes is enhanced. Benefits have been observed in several materials and applications including clutches, transmissions, and coil packs. Engine components must be disassembled before treatment because the various types of metals cool at different rates.
We test tooling from a new supplier using an industry-standard measurement device to determine the elemental composition of the rotors, drums, or gears.
If you have a preferred shipping account, we can use your account. If we handle shipping, there is a surcharge to cover costs and the shipping will be added to your invoice.
If you prefer to cut out the middleman, you can purchase treated parts from us directly with the cost of the treatment included.
