Mathauser
From WikiPedalia
An American manufacturer of brakes and brake shoes. Mathauser was an early producer of hydraulic brakes, and also made an unusual type of sidepull brake.
Mathauser is best known as a manufacturer of brake shoes. They are a distinctive ugly rust-red color, but they are the best that I have come across. They provide excellent stopping power wet or dry, and are very long-lasting. I recommend them highly. Brake shoes using Mathauser's technology are also manufactured under license by Kool Stop.
