The medical injury,class-action lawsuit against John-Mansville Corporation, for asbestosis and mesothelioma drove clutch disc and brake shoe/pad technology away from bonded asbestos friction surfaces.A friend's husband died from his job remanufacturing clutch discs.Dead worker.Dead husband.Dead father.Not good.
