Tested Wear Performance

Obsidian brake disc wear comparison test

In aviation, brake components are expected to deliver consistent, repeatable performance flight after flight. The Obsidian treatment is designed to reduce the frequency of replacements and the associated maintenance downtime, while retaining the dimensional and qualification standards of the original Cleveland part.

Cleveland Wheels and Brakes reports the following results from its testing of the Obsidian disc treatment:

  • 70% longer wear life compared with standard discs*
  • 25% longer life compared with leading competitors*
  • Up to a 50% increase in lining life as an operational impact*

*Based on laboratory test conditions using Cessna 172 aircraft assemblies. Actual results may vary.

The Cleveland Advantage

  • OEM precision dimensions
  • OEM performance
  • OEM qualification tested
  • OEM quality
  • FAA TSO certified

The wider Cleveland product range covers main wheel assemblies, nose wheel assemblies, external floating caliper brake assemblies, rotor brake assemblies, park brake valves and master cylinders, together with a full selection of brake components including brake discs, brake linings and brake rivets.

Cleveland systems are fitted to many of the most widely operated general aviation types in Europe, including Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft, Mooney and Cirrus aircraft.
