Police Program
Safety features such as traction control, stability control and brake force distribution are electronically integrated in today’s modern Police brake systems. Such technology demands application-specific brake components designed to keep the vehicle operating at maximum performance. Raybestos’ Police-formulated brake pads and rotors deliver industry-leading performance and are created to reduce overall cost per mile while maintaining peak performance levels at high temperatures. Raybestos’ Police line of Friction and Rotors are now available from the Canusa Warehouse. Contact your local rep. for more information.
Battery Specifications
Customers will see that some 60 Series battery part numbers have different specifications than in the past. There are small decreases in Cold Cranking
Amps (CCA) which, in many cases, are offset by increases in Reserve Capacity (RC).
With more electronics and increased electrical accessories that are being added to vehicles, Reserve Capacity (RC) is becoming more important in today’s vehicles.
