This offers commercial vehicles better fuel consumption, is kinder on the brake discs and saves valuable weight. This is further complemented by a unique double slot on the pads which dissipates heat and increases stability.<\/p>\n<p>Richard Barton, UK CV Product Manager at DON, said: \u201cWe are constantly developing and refining our products to ensure they meet the requirements and deliver added value to our commercial vehicle customers. One problem faced is the wear of brake pads and the downtime caused when their vehicles are having maintenance. The new DON 8750 will last longer whilst still offering a high performing product that never comprises on safety.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Part of global leader TMD Friction, DON is made to original equipment specification and benefits from the manufacturer\u2019s expertise and in-house R&amp;D innovation.
