Racing Brake Pads

Race brake pads for better performance

Brakes-Shop’s engineers work directly with race teams both off and on the track gathering valuable experience in dynamic real world conditions. This data is immediately integrated into the research and selection process, making sure the right selection of race brake pads is available to our customers, resulting in optimized brake systems for any individual or complete racing programs.

Selecting your ideal race brake pad requires finding the proper balance between bite, pad life, fade resistance and other factors in full racing conditions. Each individual race brake pad compound has its own unique properties and benefits however, all our racing brake pads offer:

• Dependable, aggressive and fade-resistant braking

• Increased effectiveness over complete operating temperature range

• Extreme stopping power and optimal safety during racing

StopTech SR Racing Brake pads

StopTech’s Racing division has developed their own line of racing friction materials to specifically suit StopTech calipers to bring the company’s “Brake Late, Finish First” philosophy for a wide range of racing disciplines, ensuring full system integrity. The unique metallic compounds are blended with carbon and graphite particles to provide an optimal high temperature race friction material. The result is smoother, more predictable and more consistent brake engagement along with exceptional release characteristics not found in most other racing friction materials.

• Dedicated high temperature race friction material
• Unique metallic compounds blended with carbon and graphite
• Extreme fade resistance for repeatable performance
  
  
• Available in 4 different formulations for different race disciplines
• Exclusively designed for StopTech Big Brake Systems

EBC Orangestuff, RP-1 & RP-X Racing Brake pads

EBC racing brake pads are ultra-high-performance track & race materials that have a flat friction response coupled with near identical fade resistance, it isn’t a case of one material being ‘better’ than the other. It’s more a case of the driver choosing what ‘feels best’ in their own opinion, whilst also factoring in any other modifications made to their vehicles brake system.

• High initial bite and powerful brake response
• Unprecedented modulation and control
• Stainless steel backing plates for reduced heat conduction (RP-1 & RP-X)
  
  
• Available in 3 different formulations for different race disciplines
• Backplates feature Nucap NRS hook pad retention system

Hawk HT-10 & DTC Racing Brake Pads

Hawk's HT-10 and DTC racing brake pads give you the braking power to compete on all courses. Hawk understands that there are alot of  different types of racecars, racing surfaces and driving styles that may require different levels of braking performance and many drivers expect the brake system to have a certain feel that suits their individual needs. Because of this, they offer several different compounds to help you choose what is best for you such as pedal feel, consistency and rotor and brake pad wear. All Hawk Racing brake pads offer more stopping power & superior release and torque control characteristics.

• Ferro-Carbon blended friction compound
• Intermediate to argressive initial bite
• Consistent brake torque levels over several temperature ranges
  
  
• Available in 12 different formulations for different race disciplines
• Hawk's racing brake pads do not include shims.

GiroDisc GP Racing Brake Pads

GiroDisc GP racing brake pads are carbon-metallic compound pads with a smooth initial bite that slightly increases with higher temperatures. They have excellent release and modulation characteristics providing very low disc & pad wear and preventing lock-up’s. GiroDisc GP racing brake pads help achieve a good brake balance without compromising the handling of the car.

• Semi-Metallic carbon blended friction compound
• Smooth initial bite that slightly increases with higher temperatures
• Very low disc & pad wear and preventing lock-up’s
  
  
• Available in 3 different formulations for different race disciplines
• Exclusively designed by GiroDisc for most Exotic’s, Supercars and Hypercars.

Raybestos ST Racing Brake Pads

Raybestos racing compounds are engineered and formulated for high-performance track use. They provide reliable, consistent braking in all track conditions. Extensive high-temperature testing is performed on the product to ensure the best results. Additionally, the Mechanical Retention System securely attaches friction material to the backing plate for greatly improved shear strength, reduces the possibility of puck end-lift and rust jacking for overall improved safety.

• Semi-metallic formulations designed for high-heat racing conditions
• Fade-resistant throughout entire temperature range
• Superior shear strength and optimized wear rate
  
  
• Available in 8 different formulations for different race disciplines
• Recommendations for the ideal application of each formulation

Whether you choose our StopTech, EBC, Hawk, Raybestos or GiroDisc race brake friction, you can be sure that you are getting proven, high quality components.

* Professional Racing brake pads are often recommended not to be used on the street as these brake pads are specifically designed and engineered for the demands and extreme usage needed on a race track only. Our Racing brake pads go the extra mile to ensure top-of-the-line performance but are not to be used in non-racing driving situations.
