Mintex

As main competition agents we are able to supply the full range of competition materials.

Materials available are: -

Mintex M1144

This is a low metallic resin bonded material made from steel and acrylic fibres. Being the A/F version of M171 it is considered the standard material for a number of events as well as remaining suitable for heavy-duty road use (although there is the possibility of some harshness in normal road use). It keeps a constant friction level over a range of temperatures with the added advantage of a high cold friction eliminating the 'dead feel' on the first use.

Applications: - Kart, Hill Climb, Club, National Rally, Single Seater Racing, High Performance Road Vehicles.

Mintex M1155

This is a low to medium metallic material using both ferrous and nonferrous materials with a high temperature abrasive / lubricant system. It is the A/F improved friction and wear replacement for M200.

Applications: - Group A& N, Loose Surface and Circuit.

Mintex M1166

This is a medium metallic material with the same specification as the M1155 material but with added inorganic compounds which give it a enhanced friction level compared to M1155 but with the same good wear rate.

Applications: - Rally, Saloon / Sports Car Endurance Racing.

Mintex M1177

This is a high metallic, organic based blend of ferrous metals and high temperature abrasives, which allows it to be used at high temperatures without any special bedding in procedure. It maintains a high friction level with low disc wear.

Applications: - Circuit Racing where sustained high temperatures are encountered.

F Series

F1R

This is a high friction compound with very high initial torque especially designed for high down force and / or high grip applications.

Typical Applications: - CART, Group A International Rallying, Touring Car.

F2R

This material has a lower initial torque than F1R and is most effective for those classes with limited aerodynamic down force. It provides increased pedal feel with improved modulation sensitivity.

Typical Applications: - NASCAR, Touring Car rear, Group A International Rallying.

F3R

A medium torque compound used as a rear brake application in front wheel drive cars.

Typical Applications: - NASCAR, Trans Am.

F4R

This material has similar characteristics as F1R but is designed to bed in more easily.

Typical Applications: - F3, Spots Car, Group A International Rallying.
