Tenneco Inc. has released its 2013-2014 Monroe brakes catalog featuring new friction product lines and several new part numbers for late-model applications.

The catalog highlights the expansion of the Monroe brand’s Total Solution line of ultra-premium brake pads, with coverage now reaching 97% of domestic and foreign nameplate applications.

Tenneco says Monroe Total Solution pads are delivered complete with electronic wire wear sensors, noise elimination hardware, sensory locking plate (SLP) backing plates and many other ultra-premium features designed to help service providers complete more high-quality brake repairs every day. Monroe premium brake shoes include all pins and levers needed for each application.

Also featured in the catalog are Monroe ProSolution brake pads and the new Monroe Severe Solution friction line for trucks, vans, buses and emergency vehicles.

The Monroe ProSolution line, offering up to 92%  sales coverage for many wholesalers, features premium-technology brake pads offered at a mid-grade price, according to Tenneco. Many ProSolution pad sets also include noise elimination hardware.

Monroe Severe Solution brake pads are the brand’s newest ultra-premium friction solution, with 88 part numbers offering exceptional quality and coverage for severe-duty applications.

Tenneco says this line includes ultra-premium technologies such as the Monroe brand’s SLP backing plate that helps to enhance friction-pad-to-backing-plate retention in more severe braking environments.

Tenneco also offers a small accessory line of special-design foreign application electronic wire wear sensors that cannot be included in the pad set box. For most other applications, Monroe wire wear sensors are included in the box with Total Solution pad sets.
