Exact casting process produce a drum with equal wall thickness giving even brake stress distribution and providing uniform thermal expansion to minimise brake judder and vibration.

HVPL brake drums are produced to exacting standards of both dimensional integrity and material specification.

Some references are machined both internally and externally to achieve an exact balance without the need for cut-outs, reducing drum wall temperature fluctuation to alleviate cracking.
