Expected brake disc standards and inspection criteria
The geometric aspects—such as height, thickness, and diameter—need to adhere to specified standards. They must all be within a precise range, known as tolerance limits. Additionally, we don’t merely inspect one disc. Our quality control system randomly selects discs for examination to ensure compliance with geometric parameters. This approach enables us to scrutinize each dimension […]
