AMS Automotive Enhances UltraQuiet Premium Disc Brake Pad Lineup

AMS Automotive has announced several enhancements to its lineup of UltraQuiet Premium Disc Brake Pads. AMS has now begun using NPH (Nitrile Polymer Hardware) Technology with its abutment clips. Starting with 301 or 304 stainless steel clips, a unique bonding process applies a nitrile polymer coating to the caliper bracket side of each abutment clip. This coating isolates vibration from the brake pad to the brake caliper, resulting in further noise reduction when compared to the OE hardware, AMS says.
