The Sealed Integrated Braking System (SIBS)is a unique new
product leading the way in brake technology. SIBS is an
enclosed single-rotor high speed disc brake. It incorporates
greater reliability in a compact enclosed package.
SIBS has been developed with these design philosophies at the
forefront:
- safety
- advanced technology
- simplicity
The benefit to the user is unrivalled dependability in any
situation

The construction of SIBS is simple. The brake
calliper,
providing the braking force, is extended to enclose the disc.
This makes up the housing. The housing is split around the
disc into inner and outer portions. The inner housing is mounted
to the axle end. The pads, disc and hub are installed; and the
outer housing is fitted to complete the assembly and enclose the
brake components. At this point SIBS cooling fluid is added into
the housing. SIBS cooling fluid is a specially selected
oil which provides a path to conduct the heat from the brake
disc to the housing. This enables the heat to then be rejected
from the housing to the surrounding air, controlling the
operating temperature of the system SIBS is simple to
install and simple to operate. It utilises conventional
actuation means and is applicable to any rotary equipment, large
or small, industrial or automotive, on and off road. The
following pages explain how this technology delivers its
performance.
