These tests were conducted on <strong>our</strong> behalf by Brake Test<strong>in</strong>g International (BTI) - a completely<br />

<strong>in</strong>dependent Government accredited (VCA, RDW etc) test<strong>in</strong>g authority us<strong>in</strong>g a<br />

Knorr Bremse SB7000 brake c<strong>all</strong>iper and discs at 10 tonne axle loads. The range <strong>of</strong> values<br />

obta<strong>in</strong>ed from the OE products we tested are illustrated collectively as the "OE<br />

Product Envelope"<br />

The stopp<strong>in</strong>g power <strong>of</strong> <strong>all</strong><br />

grades was compared at 40,<br />

60, 80, 100 & 120kph to<br />

check both the absolute level<br />

<strong>of</strong> stopp<strong>in</strong>g power at these<br />

speeds and the variation that<br />

occurs with <strong>in</strong>creas<strong>in</strong>g<br />

speed.<br />

As can be seen from <strong>our</strong><br />

chart OEC1/1 fits with<strong>in</strong> the<br />

envelope <strong>of</strong> performance<br />

provided by the pr<strong>in</strong>cipal OE<br />

products at <strong>all</strong> speeds.<br />

OEC2 fits <strong>in</strong> the middle <strong>of</strong><br />

the OE performance envelope<br />

with exceptional stability<br />

over the speed range, a factor<br />

detected by Stuart Oliver <strong>in</strong><br />

his races.<br />

This gives him exceptional predictability <strong>in</strong> the<br />

selection <strong>of</strong> his brak<strong>in</strong>g po<strong>in</strong>ts and brak<strong>in</strong>g efforts<br />

and <strong>all</strong>ows him to “stand the truck on its nose” no<br />

matter at what speed he is brak<strong>in</strong>g from!<br />

The fade test selected for<br />

<strong>our</strong> comparison is the ECE<br />

R13 test used to Type<br />

approve new OE vehicle<br />

brak<strong>in</strong>g systems.<br />

The fade behavi<strong>our</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

OEC1/1 & OEC2 are similar<br />

to each other on this test<br />

with only relatively sm<strong>all</strong><br />

changes <strong>in</strong> brake pressure<br />

be<strong>in</strong>g required to ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong><br />

the required deceleration<br />

throughout the 20 stop test.<br />

For the majority <strong>of</strong> the test<br />

<strong>Juratek</strong> products fit with<strong>in</strong><br />

the over<strong>all</strong> envelope <strong>of</strong> fade<br />

performance displayed by<br />

the range <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>in</strong>cipal OE<br />

products tested.
