COACH GUARD BONDED BRAKES

Top 3 Reasons to buy COACH GUARD Bonded Brake Shoes:

  1. The best warranty in the industry — COACH GUARD bonded shoes are warranted against de-bond failure for the usable life of the friction material
  2. An exclusive no-hassle shoe core program on all Meritor / CG Meritor fabricated shoes. No core charge!
  3. All cast shoes have a guaranteed core credit upon receipt of the shoes

Advantages of COACH GUARD Bonded, Riveted& Bolted Shoes:

  • Eliminates accidental block cracking during bolt torquing
  • Reduces personnel exposure to potentially hazardous brake dust
  • Reduces labor hours required for relines, and significantly reduces brake maintenance costs

In addition COACH GUARD bonded shoes also feature:

  • Up to 40% greater mileage between relines
  • Reduced brake noise — no hardware to loosen and chatter
  • Eliminates bolts that can score brake drums
  • 40 to 50% increased resistance to shear compared to bolted and riveted brake linings
  • Eliminates bolt holes in block that can collect drum damaging debris
  • Eliminates shoe-weakening table rust that can form under bolted block

COACH GUARD Brake Shoe Core Return Procedure:

On all cast shoes with a core charge, an RGA will automatically be issued upon purchase of your new bonded brake wheel set (2 shoes per set). Credit will only be issued as wheel sets (i.e. 2 or 3 returned brake shoes constitute one core credit). To ensure an expedient and correct credit on your core, all cast shoes must be segregated from fabricated shoes and ship as outlined below.

You will not incur a core charge when purchasing COACH GUARD fabricated bonded brakes, but we will be glad to take your non-asbestos lined used shoes at our expense. Place used shoes in a suitable shipping container:

  • Palletized wire shipping containers
  • Palletized clean, fifty-five gallon drums (drums must be securely banded to pallet)
  • Palletized heavy cardboard boxes (do not exceed box manufacturer's weight or capacity)
  • Palletized wooden crates

Mark each shipping container with name and address of sender.

Note: At MCI's discretion customers will be charged for improperly shipped used shoes if:

  • Improperly classified and / or packaged
  • Not shipped by the specified carrier
  • Lining contains asbestos
  • No sender identification
