The tread brake is a simple, early developed brake form that provides functional integration at the cost of an increased wear on the wheel tread. Despite the increased wear and tear on the wheel tread, tread brakes remain in use in the freight sector and as a safety brake for vehicles mostly using dynamic brakes. Depending on the friction material, tread brakes can either create a rough wheel surface, leading to noise, or a too smooth one, reducing the adhesion.
