Mintex Brake Pads - Developed and engineered to set new standards in aftermarket friction, Mintex brake pads provide the optimum balance of performance and extended service life. Just because a brake pad meets European Regulation 90, it does not mean it is good enough to bear the Mintex name. ECE R90 approval can still be granted even if a brake pad only performs within 15% of the guideline standard. Therefore TMD Friction considers ECE R90 as only a minimum standard and has introduced its own more stringent standards that each Mintex brake pad must meet. Testing is done under real-life conditions as well as on a dynamometer, to examine not only friction performance, but also noise, comfort and consistency across the temperature range.

Mintex is part of the TMD Friction Group - one of the world’s leading automotive friction manufacturers, supplying O.E. friction to the world’s vehicle manufacturers as well as quality aftermarket friction products.

The Mintex brand has always demonstrated a commitment to ongoing product development, a philosophy that exists to this day and which helps Mintex to stay ahead of the competition. With world-class resources, and TMD Friction’s vast original equipment expertise now supporting the Mintex Research and Development program, Mintex friction continues to evolve and set new standards in aftermarket quality and performance across its product range.

As vehicle speeds continue to increase, the demands placed on the brakes become greater. However, this is just one of the reasons why TMD Friction continues to improve the specification of Mintex friction. With the recent introduction of the European Commission’s Block Exemption Regulations, there is a growing market need for O.E. quality friction products at aftermarket prices.
