3. ECO Drum

• ECO Drum – has always been a pioneer in drum brakes
  and is now even more robust and easier to service.

  

  Both, drum brake and cost brake in one.
   

  
  

  The new ECO Drum is the product of BPW’s 110 years of braking expertise. Thanks to its proven technology and uncompromisingly robust design, it is suitable for all purposes. Its predecessor was already popular with customers thanks to its extremely robust design, ease of service and low lifecycle costssales of more than 11 million units speak for themselves. With the new ECO Drum, we have further optimised our classic drum brake and further extended our technological lead over the competition. With benefits which can be seen: a considerable reduction in weight, an improved sealing system and less wear. BPW is therefore setting new standards for drum brakes for towed vehicles in terms of reliability and profitability.
