Our Benefit

Manufacturing Processes

TPM is an ISO 9002 certified company and controls all processes from metallurgy to finish.

Modified from shelf stock.

Our experience and rigid quality

control assure you of a consistent

high-quality product.

Surface Treatment

EDP (Electro-Deposition Painting pat. pending) process provides a more uniform coating particularly on edges and recessed areas as compared to a metallic plating process.

Cadmium or Zinc plating or none.

EDP process penetrates all possible

rust areas, including inside the rotor

vanes, without heavy buildup, sags

or runs.  It also is much more

environmentally friendly than metallic

plating.   Our disc looks good and

offers superior corrosion resistance.

Braking Surface Finish

TPM performs the final crosscut after the EDP process.  It is the last step prior to packing and shipping the part.

Brake surface remains plated.

Our final crosscut finish insures

perfect parallelism and runout.

It also insures easy break-in, or

bedding, which may be problematic

 with metallic plating.

Dynamic Balance

100% checked

Usually not

Our casting and machining processes

minimize any unbalance.  The final

dynamic balance is a standard

process to insure TIR (runout) is

within specification.

Identification

Our parts have TPM P/N and Min. Thk. permanently cast.  Date code is engraved.

None

Maintains identification of our products

and ability to trace production lot.
