Abstract
A brake for vehicle wheels which includes a generally stationary brake part and a rotatable brake part adapted for cooperative braking interaction, the generally stationary brake part and rotatable brake part each respectively carrying a layer of friction material, the generally stationary and rotatable brake parts being positioned with the friction material layers in opposing relationship to each other, a hydraulic cylinder and position for forcefully moving the generally stationary brake part toward the rotatable brake part to effect braking therebetween through frictional contact of the friction material layers, the rotatable brake part layer being plastic-bonded organic friction material, and the generally stationary brake part layer being ceramic material.
