PureForge® Inc. has extensive experience developing tribological surface coatings/treatments for multiple applications. The patent portfolio is worth an estimated $ 400 + million and growing. The portfolio contains numerous U.S. and foreign patents, with an additional eight pending patent applications in process at the US Patent Office and approximately two dozen in-process patent applications related to brake engineering.

Chief Technology Officer Nathan K. Meckel leads the technology discoveries/innovations and patent portfolio. He has founded three prior technology-focused companies before forming Tech M3, Inc. in early 2006. Meckel founded Tech M3, Inc. and has been responsible for developing the tribological technology behind the products now being offered commercially by PureForge®.

PureForge® first selects high-quality OEM or OEM Equivalent rotors subjected to an inbound quality inspection and a detailed and rigorous proprietary cleaning and surface preparation process before treatment

The Atomic-Forged® process is a proprietary production protocol that treats the brake rotors’ working surfaces. Each rotor undergoes a complex metallurgical treatment protected by multiple patents, patents pending, and know-how. This treatment modifies the surface of the cast iron brake rotors at the molecular level, and the result is a multi-layer, ultra-dense metal matrix that is forged directly into/onto the surface of the rotor.

The process is proprietary, computer-controlled, robust, and highly scalable. This patented Atomic-Forged® process promotes the adherent friction of the pad to the rotor rather than the abrasive friction commonly seen in braking systems. Adherent friction does not accumulate or dissipate heat in the same way as abrasive friction. Rotor wear is effectively eliminated, and brake pad wear is significantly reduced. Additionally, brake fades are reduced when rotors are subjected to high-heat situations, such as heavy payload, steep downhill conditions, or high-speed driving. PureForge® rotors also minimize brake dust, leaving wheels cleaner and benefiting the environment.

Over 15 million miles tested to date with ZERO reported defects. Conventional Rotor: 6,000 Miles Abrasive Wear PureForge® Rotor: 46,000 Miles Like New Atomic-Forged® Process We start by selecting the highest quality OEM or OEM Equivalent rotors.
