MCI PRO SUPPORTSM PARTS SPECIALS & PRODUCT NEWS
High performance brakes are one of the most important technologies a coach manufacturer — or an operator — can invest in. Committed to offering the best new technology on its coaches, MCI is now rolling out its E4500, J4500 and newer D Series (D4505 and D4005) models with Meritor EX225 air disc brakes as standard equipment. The contemporary (CT) and classic (CL) D series coaches will include the brakes as an option, with drum brakes featured as standard equipment. Operators will find much to like in Lucas EX225 brakes. It starts with the engineering. Disc brakes have higher output resulting in stopping distances that are typically 20 to 30 percent better than traditional drum brakes. They also have superior fade resistance and more consistent torque output than drum brakes for improved stability during braking. Easy access to brake pads greatly reduces maintenance time. Additional features include a free-sliding caliper that allows even force on inner and outer brake pads; a rotor made of special alloy material for long life and outstanding friction; high-volume brake lining pads for longer life as well as uniform wear and consistent performance; and a unique design that prevents accidental disengagement of pistons during service. Both kits include axle parts and hardware required for retrofit.
