ISO 15484:2008中的程序适用于机动车辆的盘式制动片和鼓式制动衬片，并描述了此类制动衬片质量保证的系统过程。 结合公差范围，ISO 15484:2008中描述的试验方法和结果允许快速评估盘式制动片。 在各个阶段对程序进行统一处理，可确保清楚理解质量保证要求，并在客户和供应商之间的关系中实现全球实施。 ISO 15484:2008与已完成的摩擦材料有关，并适用于产品开发期间持续批量生产的质量保证，重点是“组件”摩擦材料。 建议避免进行具有明显“系统”特征的试验。 原材料检查和加工控制不在ISO 15484:2008的范围内。

The procedures in ISO 15484:2008 apply to disc brake pads and drum brake linings for motor vehicles and describe systematic processes for the quality assurance of such brake linings. In conjunction with tolerance ranges, the test methods and results described in ISO 15484:2008 permit a rapid assessment of disc brake pads. Uniform handling of the procedures through various phases ensures that the quality assurance requirements are clearly understood and that a global implementation is possible in the relationship between customers and suppliers. ISO 15484:2008 relates to the completed friction material and is applicable during product development to the quality assurance of ongoing series production, focussing on the “component” friction material. It is advisable that tests with apparent “system” character be avoided. Raw material checks and processing control are outside the scope of ISO 15484:2008.
