High friction RACING brake pad with superior brake control

  • Consistently high friction level regardless of condition; high-temperature,high-powered, heavy weight, and heavy load driving
  • Braking power which is directly proportional to brake pedal pressure
  • Perfect for use with slick race tires, competition-use tires, and high performance radial tires.

Applicable Stages

  • ストリート
  • ワインディング(ノーマル)
  • ワインディング(ハード)
  • サーキット
  • ジムカーナ
  • ダートトライアル
  • ラリー
Friction Materials:
Carbon Semi Metal
Effective Temperature Range:
200~900℃
Brake dynamometer/Fade test 2nd section:
Initial bite ( μ ):0.51/Average μ:0.40~0.45
 

PLEASE NOTE : If used for normal street use,the pads may have increased brake dust & noise and decreased disc life.The same issues may occur during circuit-use if the pads are used under temperatures outside the effective temperature range.

About Bedding-in

Competition-use brake pads need to go through a process to be pre-heated before a race to exhibit its full potential. This process is called bedding-in.

《 Method of bedding-in 》

When using new pads/discs for the first time on a circuit, start with 50% braking for about 5 minutes and then go back to the pit once and take at least 5minutes interval. After that, repeat 70~80% braking for about 10 minutes. Pit in again and take an interval of about 10 minutes. After that, gradually increase from 80% to 100% braking, and the bedding-in of pads/discs on circuit is completed.

《 Comparisons of the method of recommended bedding-in 》

  Low pressure Medium to high pressure High pressure Cooling
DIXCEL 5 mins, then cooling of 5mins 10mins, then cooling of 10mins 80% to 100% pressure in 5mins  
Brand A 150-80kph x 10 times (interval 600-800m)   180-60kph x 5 times cooling x 3 minutes
Brand B 50% braking x 5 minutes   80-100% x 5 minutes cooling x 2 minuites
Brand C 5 times 5 times 3 times cooling x 20 minutes PARKING
Brand D 3 sec braking x 30 times with LOW to HIGH pressure. 800m interval between each braking)  
Brand E 5times 5 times at slow to medium speed (interval 500m)  
Brand F   145-40kph x 5 times 2-3 laps
