SAE-J2521 – „AK-Noise” – Disc and Drum Brake Dynamometer Squeal Noise Test Procedure

The purpose of the test is to measure the squeals emitted by the brake. The procedure imitates the braking conditions for which the brake being tested has a high tendency to emit noise. The test includes forward and reverse braking modules, braking with deceleration and braking with simultaneous driving at various speed, temperature and pressure conditions.

SAE-J2521 „AK-Noise” B section „cold”

Allowing to test brakes in temperatures down to -10°C

SAE-J2522 – „AK-Master” – Dynamometer Global Brake Effectiveness

This test procedure evaluates the effective indicators of friction material, taking into account the different pressure, temperature and speed conditions for motor vehicles equipped with hydraulic brakes. The main purpose of SAE J2522 is to compare the friction material under possibly similar conditions. To take into account the different characteristics of the brake cooling systems of different dynamometers, the fade section is temperature controlled.

SAE-J2707 – Wear Test Procedure on Inertia Dynamometer for Brake Friction Materials

Dynamometer test procedure used to measure the wear of friction linings of motor vehicles’ brakes.

SAE-J2784 – FMVSS Inertia Dynamometer Test Procedure for Vehicles Below 4540 kg GVWR

The inertia test procedure determines the performance of the complete brake under the conditions corresponding to the FMVSS 105 and 135 test procedures.

SAE-J2928 – Brake Rotor Thermal Cracking Procedure for Vehicles Below 4540 kg GVWR

Laboratory method and criteria to determine the moment of initiation of cracks in the brake disk and their propagation during high energy braking events.

Dynamometer test method to homologate alternative types of brake linings (including pads) mounted on original equipment, in accordance with UN-ECE Regulation No. 13-09, Annex 15.
 

ISO 15484 - Road vehicles - Brake lining friction materials - Product definition and quality assurance

 
The procedures apply to disc brake pads and drum brake linings for motor vehicles and describe systematic processes for the quality assurance of such brake linings.
 

ISO 26867 - Road vehicles - Brake lining friction materials - Friction behaviour assessment for automotive brake systems

 
This International Standard is designed to evaluate the friction behaviour under a wide array of driving speeds, brake temperatures, brake pressure and deceleration levels.
The Standard describes a test procedure for assessing the influence of pressure, temperature, and linear speed on the coefficient of friction of a given friction material in combination with a specific mating component (rotor or drum).
 
And many other ISO test specifications.
 
The results of all those tests can be easily compared with results obtained on other friction material: OE or AM.
