Abstract
A method of making a brake assembly using recycled friction disks may comprise removing a first friction disk from a worn brake assembly, removing a portion of the first friction disk to reduce a thickness of the first friction disk, and incorporating a previously unused friction disk and the first friction disk into a brake assembly comprising unworn rotor disks made of a first material. The previously unused friction disk and the first friction disk may comprise a second material different from the first material. The thickness of the first friction disk may be different from a thickness of the previously unused friction disk.
