The team of expert machinists and welders at GLOBAL FRICTION PRODUCTS are
able to repair rusted or bent bands with usable lug ends and fabricate the bands
back to original condition. The steel will be rolled specifically for the
band and the lug ends will be welded back on using certified welding procedures. Additionally,
we can repair lug end that is broken or make the entire brake band new. GFP provides
stress relieving, heat treatment and non-destructive testing if required. Our
company can manufacture a new band with prints provided, off a sample, or travel
to the machine to make prints for you. We also offer an exchange program with
our own inventory.
Global Friction Products carries a surplus of inventory to meet the needs
of all industries, machines and applications. To include the following: Heavy
duty woven 3/16 to 1.250 inches thick and up to 13 inches wide; molded
and key lock block, arc slabs, flat sheets, and clutch lining 3/16 to 4 inches
thick etc. The heavy-duty woven material can be sold by the roll or by
the piece. In addition, supply-lining kits can be provided. The scrubber
brake blocks for winch applications are supplies to help keep the rust off the
brake drums and maintain the friction level.
The most important element of our business is that we operate in an emergency
mode. If a manufacturer does not have the capability to produce a band
fast enough to get your machine "up and running", we have the capability
to produce a new or repaired product within a day or two. Our corporate
executives have over 25 years of experience in this industry. Please visit
our web site at GlobalFrictionProducts.com or call 1-800-285-2700.
