In order to have a local brake shop reline my winch brake, I ordered a 25 foot roll of
Woven Brake Lining 1 3/4" WIDE X 3/16" THICK. Steve forwarded me a link on Ebay and someone wanted 25 bucks per foot. I needed just under 2 feet to do the three winch pieces. If you need some for your winch restoration PM me and and you can have what you need at cost for $5.25 a foot plus shipping.
The shop had to clamp the lining onto the brakes and then dip in boiling water 4x to get them to form correctly.
