RADAR DIAGRAM COMPARISON CRITERIA

Friction Overall mean friction coefficient. Comparative rating 1 to 6. (1= Low Friction, 6= High Friction)		Wet Braking The effectiveness of the material in wet conditions. Comparative rating 1 to 6. (1= Poor friction in wet conditions, 6= Normal friction in wet conditions)

Bite Initial friction at the start of the stop. Comparative rating 1 to 6. (1= Low, 6= High)		Operating Temperature The operating temperature of the discs as a result of friction material choice. Comparative rating 1 to 6. (1= Low temperature, 6= High temperature)

Fade Resistance Drop off in friction coefficient under severe braking conditions. Comparative rating 1 to 6. (1= Poor fade resistance, 6= Extremely high fade resistance)		Comfort The amount of noise generated during the braking cycle. Comparative rating 1 to 6. (1= high noise level, 6= low noise level)

Pad Life The rate of pad consumption. Comparative rating 1 to 6. (1= Short pad life, 6= Long pad life)		Disc Life The rate of disc consumption with the respective friction material. Comparative rating 1 to 6. (1= Short disc life, 6= Long disc life)
