1901-0268-00 DFC True-Arc Brake Shoes for Volkswagen Type 3 Sedan/Fastback/Squareback

This DFC component is part of the 100% Outright Program—no core return or deposit required. Engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications for direct-fit performance. The DFC 63-74 Volkswagen Type 3 rear premium service brake shoes are constructed from semi-metallic friction material, offering reliable stopping power for classic Volkswagen models. Featuring a high-temperature anti-rust coating, these brake shoes are dipped in durable black paint to withstand harsh conditions and enhance longevity.

Each shoe undergoes rigorous field and lab testing to ensure consistent, long-lasting performance. The bonding process incorporates glue lining and treatment to guarantee a secure friction material to steel bond, preventing delamination and ensuring optimal operation. Precision arc grinding ensures a perfect fit against the drum, facilitating smooth, quiet braking and reducing uneven wear over time. Whether bonded or riveted per OEM specifications, these shoes are designed for straightforward installation and dependable service.

Ideal for models including 1966-1974 Volkswagen Type 3 variants such as Fastback, Sedan, and Squareback, these brake shoes are a direct replacement for factory components. The high-quality cast iron construction delivers durability and heat resistance, critical for heavy-duty or frequent use. Expert installation and field note: Drawing from our shop experience specializing in heavy-duty brakes since 1985, we recommend verifying pushrod alignment before final mounting to prevent internal cup damage.
