Midwest Brake - Friction Material
Midwest Brake has been a leading supplier of non asbestos industrial friction material and bonding technology since 1950. Our experience and proprietary processing techniques developed over 50 years have been refined and perfected to provide our customers with the best quality, most reliable friction materials and bonding services available in the market today.
Rather than outsource your part to several vendors, let Midwest Brake manage the manufacture of your entire part. Typical parts need gear, welding, machining, stress relieving, inspection and other processes that take time and expend valuable resources. Midwest Brake has a complete staff of engineering, purchasing and logistics personnel skilled in handling the details of multiple process orders. Let Midwest Brake provide you with high quality, complete parts on time.
