A subsidiary of New York Airbrake Corp., Knorr-Bremse Group Friction Material rail vehicle systems AAR BRAKE BLOCKS Anchor Brake Shoe has been manufacturing a full range of AAR-compliant composition and semi-metallic locomotive and freight car brake shoes for nearly 40 years. Highest quality is combined with real-world experience to deliver superior performance and value in all applications and service environments. 7 WHEELSAVER High Friction Semi- Metallic Tread Conditioning Freight Car Brake Shoes Anchor s WheelSaver tread conditioning product line is AAR M-997 certified and provides a stable and repeatable coefficient of friction and provides 100% shoe face-to-wheel conditioning capabilities. Our proprietary, semi-metallic friction material has proven to significantly outlast standard composition friction materials and to dramatically decrease premature wheelset removals. CHANGESAVER HIGH FRICTION Composition Freight Car Brake Shoes Anchor s ChangeSaver high friction composition freight car product line is AAR M-926 certified. It incorporates our exclusive dampening pad technology designed to withstand excessive vibrations present in today s heavy haul service environment. This technology, coupled with a dimensional design that has 45% more friction material per shoe than any other AAR certified product, provides unmatched durability and life-cycle performance. WheelSaver AAR Tread Conditioning Freight Car Shoe ChangeSaver AAR High friction Freight Car Shoe HIGH FRICTION Composition Locomotive Brake Shoes Anchor carries a full line of high friction composition locomotive brake shoes designed to meet the AAR RP-599 and other customer-designed specifications.
