Overview
The Brake System offered by Armour Master is designed to support the operational demands of armored and heavy-duty vehicles. Due to increased vehicle weight and altered load dynamics caused by armoring, standard braking components are often insufficient. Armour Master provides a complete range of reinforced brake system components to ensure controlled, reliable, and consistent braking performance.
The brake system offering focuses on component-level solutions, allowing upgrades, replacements, or system conversions based on vehicle requirements.
Brake System Components
Armour Master supplies the following brake system components for armored and heavy-duty applications:
Brake Pads
Brake Pads are engineered to handle increased friction demands caused by heavier armored vehicles. These components play a critical role in ensuring controlled deceleration and consistent braking response during operation.
Key role:
Provides friction required to slow or stop the vehicle
Designed to operate under higher braking loads
Suitable for armored vehicle applications
Brake Rotors
Brake Rotors are essential for heat dissipation and braking stability. In armored vehicles, rotors must withstand higher thermal stress due to increased mass and braking force requirements.
Key role:
Works in conjunction with brake pads for stopping power
Supports consistent braking under repeated use
Designed for heavy-duty braking environments
Calipers
Calipers apply pressure to brake pads against the rotor, enabling effective braking. Armour Master supplies calipers suitable for reinforced brake systems used in armored vehicles.
Key role:
Ensures proper clamping force during braking
Maintains braking control and balance
Compatible with heavy-duty brake configurations
Drum to Disc Conversion Kit
The Drum to Disc Conversion Kit allows vehicles originally equipped with drum brakes to be upgraded to disc brake systems. This conversion supports improved braking efficiency and control, particularly for armored vehicles.
Key role:
Upgrades braking system architecture
Enhances braking response and consistency
Suitable for armored vehicle conversions
Dual Diaphragm Brake Booster
The Dual Diaphragm Brake Booster increases braking force assistance, reducing driver effort while improving braking response. This component is critical in armored vehicles where higher braking force is required.
Key role:
Amplifies braking input from the driver
Improves braking efficiency under heavy loads
Supports safer vehicle operation
System Configuration Flexibility
Armour Master’s brake system components can be:
Supplied individually
Integrated as part of a broader braking upgrade
Used during armored vehicle conversions
Replaced as part of maintenance or retrofit programs
This modular approach ensures compatibility with different vehicle platforms and armoring requirements.
