Summary:A brake drum shoe 10 or disc brake pad has a friction member 11 bonded to a backing support 12 by an adhesive 13 which cures at room temperature. The adhesive (which may be silicone based and sold by the trade name Rhodorsil in two-part form) may then have performance improved by heating. Backing plate 12 may be metal with spikes or projections (21, fig 1A) and/or an abutment or flange (20, fig 1A). Methods of ensuring the correct curvature of the friction surface using a former (18, fig 6) thus avoiding grinding, and adhesive bead or spot patterns (figs 4a-4f) are also disclosed.
