Expert Relines Brakes And Clutches
If you have old brakes and clutches that need relining, Tim Doran of All Frictions Co. can help. His company has lined all sizes of friction clutches and brake drums up to 56-in. dia. – big enough to stand in. He also does custom fabrication and prototyping. Currently he’s working on tiny centrifugal clutch kits that come on kit race cars.
  “Usually the smaller it is, the harder it is to work on,” says Doran. “The availability of materials flexible enough to work with is limited, and the jobs take more time and effort.”
  The list of machines the company has worked on includes construction equipment, ski lifts, elevators, logging equipment, small tractors and antique cars. All Frictions does bonding rather than rivets as most others do. The company also sells friction materials to customers who prefer to line their own clutches and brakes.
  “We work on anything with a friction material on it,” says Doran. “If you don’t have the brake or clutch, but you do have a blueprint, we can fabricate what you need. If you need it relined, we can reline it. If it’s broken, we can repair it.”
