Development of technology, driving a lot of demand for materials that are cheaper, durable, and environmentally friendly for various purposes, especially in the automotive field. The most important safety feature of any vehicle is its braking system. The ability of brakes is to provide safe and repeatable stopping, which is related to safety of automobiles and human. In this study, candlenut shells (CdNS) and coconut shells (CNS) are used as composite materials in the manufacture of brake linings. The presented research work investigates / explore the mechanical properties and physical of brake pad composites formed candlenuts shell (CdNS) and coconut shell (CNS) composite and wear performance of friction materials. The specific wear rate generally increases with the increase in applied load and sliding speed for all compositions.
