Carlisle Motion Control is focused on braking solutions and systems for heavy-duty trucking. Our innovative Cohesive Friction product is designed to double the life of brake linings and drums. Our state-of-the-art specialty friction production facility in South Hill, Virginia is furthering our objective of becoming the low-cost producer of large truck (Class 6, 7 and 8) friction products.

During 2003, Carlisle's two braking businesses, Carlisle Motion Control and Carlisle Industrial Brake & Friction, were combined under one management team. This allows the two companies to:
 
  • share formulation and processing technologies,
  • share utilization of test facilities for new product development and enhanced customer support,
  • combine the sales responsibilities at major OEM customers, and
  • utilize the advanced capabilities in braking systems and friction at Carlisle Industrial Brake & Friction and the expertise in friction at Carlisle Motion Control to provide better braking solutions to our customers.
