A friction lining material mixture for brake or clutch linings, containing 8 to 22% by volume of binder, 3 to 20% by volume of organic fibers, 1 to 20% by volume of further organic compounds, 0 to 20% by volume of inorganic fibers, 5 to 50% inorganic oxides, 0 to 15% inorganic silicates, 1 to 20% inorganic sulfur or inorganic sulfur compounds, 0 to 10% metals or metal alloys and fillers, in particular petroleum coke and/or baryte. The friction linings produced from the friction lining material mixture are distinguished by excellent braking performance and excellent braking comfort and therefore combine the specific positive properties of both Low Steel (LS) and Non-Asbestos Organic (NAO) materials.
