Glazed or cracked friction surface
Overheated pads glaze, lose grip and wear the mating drum. If the surface is shiny or shows heat checks, braking torque is already inconsistent.

Exact-fit brake pads and wear parts for Marquip or MarquipWardUnited roll stands and sheeters — machined to the original drawings by the OEM that built your machine, and shipping now from our USA parts hubs.
Corrugator and sheeter brake pads are the friction elements that control web tension and stop roll rotation on corrugator and sheeter roll stands, splicers. As pads wear, plants see tension drift, warp and longer stops. BW Papersystems supplies OEM-spec brake pads for Marquip, MarquipWardUnited and WillPemco machines across North, Central and South America.
Why it matters
A worn friction pad rarely fails loudly. It shows up first in your waste numbers — then in an unplanned stop.
Overheated pads glaze, lose grip and wear the mating drum. If the surface is shiny or shows heat checks, braking torque is already inconsistent.
Uneven pad wear on roll stand brakes makes butt-roll tension wander — the hidden cause behind warp complaints and glue-line defects downstream.
If stop distances are creeping up on sheeters or splicers, friction material is below spec. Replace pads on condition — not after a failure.
Applications
Friction pads for ARC and MRC series roll stands and legacy MarquipWardUnited roll stands. Restore precise butt-roll control and stable web tension into the singlefacer — the foundation of flat, crush-free board.
OEM sheeter brake pads and wear parts for MarquipWardUnited sheeting equipment and Pemco / WillPemcoBielomatik sheeters — unwind brakes, knife-section friction parts and the consumables around them.
Legacy coverage
BW Papersystems holds the original build records behind these nameplates. That is why a Marquip corrugator or sheeter part ordered here fits the first time: it comes from the same drawings your machine was built from.
The OEM difference
| What you're buying | BW Papersystems OEM | Will-fit copy |
|---|---|---|
| Friction material | Original compound the brake was engineered around, batch-tested | Unspecified mix — glazing and drum wear risk |
| Fit & tolerances | Machined to the original build drawings, serial-matched | Reverse-engineered "close enough" |
| Warranty | Full OEM parts warranty | Limited or none |
| Documentation | Traceable to your machine's build records | None |
| Support | Factory parts engineers in English, Spanish & Portuguese | Reseller inbox |
One failed pad can stop a corrugator for a shift. The price gap between OEM and copy parts rarely survives its first unplanned stop.

Answers
Roll stand brake pads are wear components used in roll stand braking systems. They help support controlled braking response, which contributes to stable web tension and consistent machine performance.
Brake pads should be checked regularly as part of planned maintenance. Worn, glazed, or damaged pads can contribute to uneven braking response, web tension variation, and quality issues.
Yes. BW Papersystems can provide complete brake pad kits that include the required hardware for installation, helping simplify maintenance and reduce the need to source components separately.
These brake pads are intended for selected BW Papersystems corrugating and sheeting applications, including legacy Marquip, Will, and PEMCO equipment where applicable. Customers should contact their CSR team to confirm compatibility.
Contact the CSR team with your machine model, serial number, brake system information, and required quantity. The team can help confirm the correct replacement option and availability.
Yes. BW Papersystems is the OEM behind MarquipWardUnited and MarquipWardUnited machines, so every brake pad is machined to the original drawings and friction specification. Send your machine model and serial number and our parts team confirms the exact-fit part number before you order.
Brake pads are fitted wherever the web must be tensioned or stopped: roll stands (including ARC and MRC series), splicers, and the unwind and knife sections of sheeters. They control butt-roll rotation and web tension, so worn pads show up as tension drift, warp and longer stops.
OEM brake pads use the friction compound the machine was engineered around, are machined to original tolerances, and carry a full factory warranty. Will-fit copies can glaze, wear unevenly or damage mating drums — and the downtime from one failed pad usually costs more than years of OEM pricing.
Yes. Pemco is a BW Papersystems brand, today part of the WillPemcoBielomatik line. We stock genuine brake pads and wear parts for Pemco sheeters as well as MarquipWardUnited sheeting equipment, all supplied direct from the OEM.
Stocked brake pads ship from our USA arts hubs — whichever is closest to your plant. Your emailed quote confirms availability, transit time and landed cost for your location, with support available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Send the machine brand, model and serial number — a photo of the old pad or its tag helps too. Because we hold the original build records for Marquip, MarquipWardUnited and Pemco machines, our team matches your serial number to the correct part the first time.
