Industrial Bonding

Let Rochester Clutch & Brake Do Your Industrial Brake Bonding For You

Industrial brake bonding is essentially the same as shoe bonding but for specialty and heavy-duty machinery. A brake adhesive is applied to the friction material and put under pressure in a special jig, and then heated in an oven for a fixed amount of time. The precise amount of pressure combined with the high temperature creates a vulcanizing bond, which is very strong and far superior to a cold bond (two part epoxy bond) or riveting.

We have an 8x8x12 walk-in oven for big bonding jobs, and several smaller 3×3 ovens for smaller jobs. For over 93 years, we have worked on thousands of jobs and types of machines for every facet of the industry. Here are a few examples:

• Overhead and Hoist Cranes
• Elevator and Conveyor Brakes
• OEM Production Equipment
• Mining Industry
• Press Brakes
• Railway
• Wind Turbines
• Aerospace Industry
• Military
• Agriculture
