What does 'Precision Arc Grinded' mean for these brake shoes?

Precision arc grinding means the curved surface of the brake shoe is ground to match the exact contour of the brake drum. This ensures full contact between the shoe and drum for improved braking performance and reduced noise right from the start.

How is the friction material attached to the shoe?

The friction material is attached to the steel backing plate using either bonding (gluing) or riveting, following the Original Equipment specifications for your Merkur XR4Ti. This ensures a secure and durable connection.

What is the benefit of the anti-rust black paint on the backing plates?

The high-temperature anti-rust black paint helps protect the steel backing plates from corrosion and rust. This is important for maintaining the structural integrity of the brake shoe and ensuring consistent performance, especially in areas exposed to moisture and road salt.
