NRS Brakes has announced the addition of brake kits for the 2021-2023 Ford F-150 pickup trucks, including the highly anticipated F-150 Lightning electric pickup. This is a significant move for the company as it expands its product line to meet the needs of the rapidly evolving automotive industry.
The brake kits, designed to cover both front and rear applications, will cater to the almost 1.6 million vehicles in this category. They will include NRS Brakes’ premium galvanized brake pads, abutment hardware, and caliper piston cushions. The use of galvanized steel in NRS Brakes’ brake pads provides a longer lifespan, which is particularly beneficial for electric vehicles like the F-150 Lightning, which rely less on hydraulic braking systems than internal combustion engine vehicles.

Montu Khokar, the CEO of NRS Brakes, explained that EV vehicle brakes are used less, which results in a buildup of corrosion. However, this is not a concern with NRS Brakes’ galvanized brake pads, which do not corrode. “The galvanized steel at the heart of all NRS Brakes pads helps provide longer life, which is an advantage for all applications, especially electric vehicles like the Lightning,” he said.
What sets NRS Brakes apart from other brake pad manufacturers is its patented NRS friction-attachment technology, which incorporates galvanized steel. This technology makes the brake pads quieter, safer, and longer-lasting, according to the company. The galvanized steel backing plates outlast the friction, ensuring that the pads will not fail as a result of corrosion or friction material delamination from the backing plate, giving vehicle owners and operators peace of mind.
