Tenneco has expanded its Monroe Brakes product line to include dozens of new Total Solution and Monroe ProSolution pad sets offering combined coverage of more than 53.2 million additional late-model European, Asian and North American passenger vehicles. According to Tenneco, these new numbers represent the beginning of an aggressive coverage expansion planned for 2016.
With the new part number additions, Total Solution brake pads are available for approximately 97 percent of passenger vehicles registered in North America, while Monroe ProSolution coverage increases to 96 percent of the passenger car population. Included among the 57 new Monroe Brakes part numbers are 31 pad sets featuring premium ceramic formulations, expanding the brand’s ceramic coverage offering.
“Our growing portfolio of ultra-premium and premium ceramic pads enables service providers not only to match the OE technology used on the majority of new passenger applications, but also to offer an alternative for customers who would like to upgrade from semi-metallic to ceramic pads,” said Tom Connelly, national sales and marketing manager, Monroe Brakes.
Consistent with the name, Total Solution brake pads include everything needed for the repair for most applications, enabling technicians to complete more high-quality brake jobs in less time, the company says. These pads feature ultra-premium ceramic or semi-metallic friction formulations and shim technologies, stainless steel noise reduction hardware, Sensory Locking backing plates, and wire wear sensors, where applicable. Tenneco also packages brake lubricant with each Total Solution pad set.
Monroe ProSolution brake pads are equipped with premium ceramic or semi-metallic friction formulations engineered for exceptional noise reduction, long pad life and superior stopping performance, Tenneco says.
