Below you’ll find your very own AAPEX map! We’re not just in the back; we’re in the ‘X marks the spot’ back. But fear not, intrepid automotive explorer, for the treasure trove of knowledge and innovation that awaits you at our booth is worth every twist and turn.
Dino Crescentini and Daniel Biezonsky get into the specifics of friction formulation that are not apparent to the naked eye. Competitors view brake pads as being the same, they’ll see one shape and offer one formulation across a wide variety of vehicles. At DFC we do things a lot differently!
We aim to get the brake system with a DFC product feeling like it did when you drove it off the showroom floor. We make sure the friction formulation is very specific to the use case of the vehicle its intended for. That is the only way to restore the braking system to its optimum form.
