Released
in 2001,this compound has increased initial bite and improved
modulation. The friction level has been increased for the first
two-thirds of the braking event, with flatter torque curve and
more linear friction curve compared to 83 and 93. This allows
the driver to attack the brake pedal later, reducing the time
spent on the brakes. Very smooth release will not over-slow the
car, and won't overwhelm the car's set-up.
Like 97 compound, 01 has excellent modulation characteristics
that improve controllability and driver confidence. 01 uses Performance
Friction’s unique lubrication package that maintains a minimal
transfer layer on the disc to help prevent brake judder and provide
excellent release properties, therefore reducing overall drag
in the brake system. 01 is extremely easy on the discs with very
low wear. Effective from 67°F and reach 2000°F (75°C
, reach 1100°C), optimum operating range is between 860°F
and 1004°F (460°C and 540°C).
The
Coming Soon
Performance Friction is constantly working to develop and
improve its current range of pad materials.
03 Compound - NEW IN 2003
03
compounds have shown to have higher bite and higher average
torque than 02 compounds. The 03 will handle the most severe
conditions. 03 have excellent release for improved modulation
Very easy on the discs with wear on par with 02 compounds. Very
smooth release so as not to over slow or overwhelm the car’s
set-up.
