The code provides test procedures and methods of calculating a brake rating from the data obtained. At this time, the procedure has been developed to cover only brakes of the sizes and types generally used on commercial vehicles. Some general correlation may be expected between brake ratings established by this means and those obtained from vehicle tests such as outlined in SAE J880. However, the effects of brake environment as installed in various vehicles are not considered in this laboratory procedure.
The code may be used as a supplement to SAE J667, or it may be used independently.
Other methods of measuring energy absorption capacity and establishing a brake rating other than those described herein may be equally valid.
The user of this SAE Recommended Practice should also take note that the brake rating horsepower (brhp) calculated by conduct of this code is an arbitrary index of performance of the brake (and drum) when tested by this procedure and may be appreciably different from the values obtained by other techniques.
The Truck and Bus Foundation Brake Committee of the Truck and Bus Brake and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Steering Committee is responsible for developing, reviewing, and approving recommended practices, standards, and information reports relative to foundation brakes; including brake lining friction materials, manual and automatic brake adjusters and their interfacing as utilized on trucks, tractor-trailer combinations, and buses over 10,000 lbs (4500 Kg) GVWR designed primarily for highway use. The activities of this committee are to be directed so as to concentrate on heavy duty foundation brakes and their corresponding lining friction materials, and not, in any way to duplicate the efforts of any other SAE committee.
* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.

SAE MOBILUS supports the use of the AND, OR and NOT BOOLEAN operators ONLY function with the Advanced Search.
Wild Cards
Using the asterisk, ( * ) allows you to search for a partial word. For example, entering a keyword search of aero* will search for any word beginning with aero.
Using the question mark, ( ? ) allows you to search for a word with a single character wildcard. For example, searching for t?re would match both tire and tyre
Using Quotes
Words in double quotes " " are treated as a phrase. Conducting a search for "heat model" will return all results in which the exact phrase "heat model" is found, while "heat modeling" would NOT be included.
A term combined with a phrase will be joined with an OR operator.
