[QUOTE="nortonrider, post: 149080, member: 5270"] It would be interesting to learn more on what material Godet uses, although I am rather committed to D3920 now, having done up a couple sets. I will phone up their shop tomorrow to learn more. Are you referring to R4 in your test and the above pic? I see that Porterfield recommends their Woven version R-4 for mechanical pull applications. Has anyone tried this version? [B]R-4 Woven Kevlar[/B] Porterfields Woven Kevlar is high friction woven composite material designed for use in mechanically actuated drum brake systems. It has very high friction at ambient and low temperatures for good initial bite and may be bonded to aluminum or steel brake shoe cores. Trusted by top car mechanics to stop the most valuable of vintage vehicles safely, without any unnecessary drum wear. This material is widely used in vintage racing and vintage touring events on vehicles with mechanical drum brakes. [/QUOTE]
