Brake Colloquium & Exhibition (SAE International) Exhibitor List

This list covers companies signed up for the Brake Colloquium & Exhibition (SAE International). The event is scheduled for Sep 26–29, 2027 in Grand Rapids, MI, USA. The focus is ABS Disc Calipers & Friction Linings. You can expect a mix of brake system makers, friction material suppliers, test equipment firms, and regional distributors. Listings often show company names, booth numbers, product categories, and websites. Because rosters change, treat this as a working snapshot. Always confirm details on the official event site. That keeps your plans accurate and your outreach relevant.

• Covers ABS, calipers, and friction linings suppliers
• Includes booth and category details where available
• Best used as a planning snapshot

This directory is useful for sales teams, sourcing managers, and market researchers in the brake industry. If you sell test gear, coatings, or components, you can build a target list and book meetings ahead of the show. If you buy brake parts, you can compare suppliers in one place. Analysts can track who is active in ABS Disc Calipers & Friction Linings. The list also helps recruiters and media teams find the right contacts. It is not a buyer list. It is a starting point for your own calls, emails, and floor plan.

• Sales teams can pre-book booth meetings
• Buyers can compare suppliers in one trip
• Researchers can track active companies

Start by filtering the list to companies that fit your offer. Group them by hall or booth number so you can walk the floor without backtracking. Send short emails two to three weeks before the show. Mention the event and your product in one line. Ask for a 15-minute slot. Keep a backup list for open time. At the booth, ask about current projects, timelines, and who handles sourcing. Note what they need. Follow up within two days after the event. That routine turns a busy show into real pipeline.

• Filter by booth and product fit
• Email for short meetings early
• Follow up within 48 hours

Use the exhibitor list to compare suppliers of calipers, pads, linings, and test systems. Check if a company makes the full assembly or just one part. Ask about lead times, minimum order quantities, and quality certificates. Look at samples and ask for test data. If you need regional support, ask where their warehouses are. Bring a short checklist so every booth gets the same questions. After the show, score each vendor on price, capability, and support. That makes your next sourcing decision much easier.

• Ask about lead times and MOQs
• Request test data and samples
• Score vendors after the show

The exhibitor list is a quick way to see who is investing in the brake sector. Look for new names in friction materials or caliper tech. Note which companies take larger booths or run demos. That can signal new products or expansion. Compare this list with last year's list to spot trends. Read session titles to see what topics are hot. Use the list to build a simple competitor map. Track product categories, booth size, and messaging. This gives you a clear view of the ABS Disc Calipers & Friction Linings market.

• Spot new and returning companies
• Track booth size and demo activity
• Compare year over year for trends

After Sep 26–29, 2027, the exhibitor list still has value. You can sort contacts by category and region for future outreach. Add notes from your booth talks. Mark who you met and what they need. Set reminders for follow-ups in 30, 60, and 90 days. If a supplier was a good fit, ask for a quote or sample. If a lead was not ready, keep them in a nurture list. Review the list each quarter. That keeps your brake network fresh and your pipeline moving.

• Add booth notes to each record
• Set 30/60/90-day follow-ups
• Review contacts each quarter
