Brembo Launches New Website, Mobile Parts App

Brembo unveiled its new aftermarket-dedicated website and its first mobile app, Brembo Parts, for the North American Aftermarket.

The new website, www.BremboParts.com, offers users a comprehensive resource for information on Brembo’s aftermarket program. The site offers technical information about Brembo products including updated data from the online catalog, fitting instructions for rotors and pads, and technical drawings and assembly information. Additional content includes tutorials taken from the Brake System Academy DVD, manuals dedicated to the products, and marketing literature and other relevant downloads.

The free Brembo Parts app includes a complete Brembo Aftermarket Catalogue for North America, as well as Europe, where the product categories “Rotors-Drums” and “Pads-Shoes” are displayed along with an “Info” tab that identifies Brembo’s North American distributors.

The main feature of the app is the ability to search for detailed technical information for all of the part numbers available in the catalog. Within a product category, searches can be accomplished by entering the model or Brembo part number and tapping “Search.” The App will immediately display all of the available part numbers, descriptions and part types associated with the various models of the vehicle. Additional descriptions, specifications, interchangeable part numbers and schematic drawings are also easily accessible directly from the app, according to Brembo.

Brembo Parts is currently available for iPhones/iPads, and will be available for Android devices by December.

A video tutorial that shows the main features of the app is available at BremboTube, the company’s YouTube channel.
