Getting better all the time

We Focus On Quality & Safety

The ATE brand is renowned for its premium quality brake pads and discs. All Alfred Teves Brake Systems (Pty) Ltd brake pad formulations are locally developed to meet the unique driving conditions in South Africa whilst conforming to strict global regulatory standards. Depending on the application, replacement clips are supplied with many brake pad sets. ATE also offers brake pads for Heavy Commercial Vehicles (HCV). The friction material formulation was developed in-house to handle local operating conditions and legal requirements, successfully passing the SABS VC8053 tests in 2008 and later approved to the stringent international e-Mark specification.

ATE branded brake shoes for passenger vehicles and LCV’s are quickly gaining acceptance in the aftermarket. These are not re-bonded but are manufactured with new components. Core returns are therefore something of the past and retailers no longer face the hassle of handling old or damaged parts. The greatest benefit to motorists is the improved safety that comes with fitting a brand new component. Our brake shoes also adhere to the VC8053 Standard and are approved by the SABS.

Alfred Teves Brake Systems (Pty) Ltd further offers a range of hydraulic master cylinders and wheel cylinders for popular applications. These cylinders are manufactured to premium quality levels and comply with the internationally recognised ISO 6118:2006 standard, ensuring consistent performance and reliability.
