A friction assembly has a support plate, at least one brake pad and at least one reinforcing foil of the plate. The brake pad and the support plate are co-moulded from at least one heat-resistant resin. The reinforcing foil is fixed to the support plate via anchoring projections, joined to and which extend away from the foil, embedded in the resin to prevent or limit deformations of the support plate in the use of the assembly.

Friction assembly, brake caliper and manufacturing method

The invention illustrates a material for friction components of disc brakes comprising between 1% and 8% by weight of at least one preceramic resin and between 2% and 10% by weight of at least one organic resin. It also illustrates a friction component for a disc brake, a disc brake, and a process for producing such a material.
