Modern passenger cars use disc brake systems to ensure proper stopping power under all operating conditions of the vehicle. One friction partner, the brake disc, is usually made of gray-cast iron. This means very good thermo-mechanical resistance, convenient tribological behavior, easy machining and very reasonable cost structures.
