Re: Mcmasters Brake and Clutch Lining
The arm gearbox I designed for 649 utilized a piston-actuated piston brake. The material used as the friction material was urethane as opposed to the materials in the link you provided. From what I heard, the setup has endured quite well during the competition season.
Of course, you would need to consider piston force and other factors, but I guess this would be "something equivalent" to the Brake and Clutch lining. Personally, I would recommend urethane, me coming from a team with experience with it in such applications.
