Global Disc Brake Market is valued approximately USD 10.7 billion in 2018 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 6.50% over the forecast period 2019-2026. A disc brake is a type of brake that uses calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc or "rotor" to create friction. This action slows the rotation of a shaft, such as a vehicle axle, either to reduce its rotational speed or to hold it stationary. The energy of motion is converted into waste heat which must be dispersed. Rising demand for safety measures and favorable government regulation for minimizing stopping distance are the factors responsible for high CAGR of the market. Technological upgradation to make lightweight disc brakes is the factor that creates lucrative growth opportunities to the market over the forecast period. Also, increasing sale of automotive and increasing number of road accident is contributing towards growth of global Disc Brake market. For instance: it is estimated that total number of road accidents in 2017 is about 4,64,910 have been reported by States and Union Territories (UTs) in the calendar year 2017, claiming 1,47,913 lives and causing injuries to 4,70,975 persons. Further, disc brakes offer benefits such as optimal operation without the need of additional expenses for adjustment and cleaning, less cooling time and overall capacity that regulates their demand across various regions. However, low-end vehicle manufacturers avoiding the use of disc brakes due to the high cost involved is the major factor anticipated to limiting the market growth during the forecast period.
