Elite Brake adds DiamondCote to reman’d brake shoes

Elite Brake Co., a Tier 2 supplier of brake-related components to OEMs and aftermarket suppliers, is now using DiamondCote on all its remanufactured brake shoes. The addition of DiamondCote, the best anti-corrosive protection available, according to Elite, will eliminate problems associated with rust-jacking.

DiamondCote is a cathodic electrostatic coating process which gives 400% better rust protection than industry standard remanufactured brake shoe paint, according to Elite Brake.

The process includes 12 steps to ensure the brake shoe is clean and free of imperfections and then a procedure that employs the particle-attracting property of electrostatic charges is used to coat the metal surface.
