A method of making a hybrid laminate whereby a first, thick base lamina has a plurality of piercing members or barbs and a second, onto which a second, thin interface lamina is impaled. The exposed tips of the barbs are clinched over to form rivet-like heads that clamp the two laminae together. By choosing the materials for the lamina, an interface surface can be provided for a wide range of other materials or objects to be attached by, for example, adhesive bonding. A disc brake pad is disclosed made from the instant hybrid laminate.
