Regulation 90 (ECE R90)
Regulation 90 (ECE R90)
Regulation 90 (ECE R90) sets a minimum manufacturing and safety standard for replacement brake pads and shoes. During development, each new Mintex brake pad is subjected to much more exhaustive testing than Regulation 90 requires, to ensure it performs not only to R90 standards, but also to TMD Friction standards.
