Description
PAGID are a long standing world leader in brake technology, and offer various compounds for a wide variety of uses and platforms, catering for most OEM and Big Brake Caliper applications.
Details of their ranges as follows :
PAGID RS - premium organic based compound racing brake pads
Medium average friction, consistent in-stop behavior with good pedal feed back, favourable release
characteristics reducing drag, good disc life, low heat conductivity.
-RS 14:
Medium to high friction ceramic type compound with good initial bite, excellent release characteristic,
very good modulation and controllability. Low wear rate and fade resistant up to 650°C. Newer compounds
have replaced RS14 in some applications.
-RS 19:
Low pad wear, very disc friendly, wide temperature range , yet most used pad in endurance racing.
Due to excellent release characteristics and controllability also often used in shorter sprint races.
-RS 29:
Combines the outstanding wear rate of the RS19 with a slightly higher initial bite and torque.
-RS 4-2:
Medium friction compound with immediate low temperature response. Very easy bedding process.
Classic Rally pad and also very popular in small formula cars. Newer compounds have replaced
RS4-2 in some applications.
-RS 4-4:
Medium friction compound with medium initial bite. Very good rear pad for RWD front engine and
FWD cars. Newer compounds have replaced RS44 in some applications.
PAGID RST - rally, sprint and stock car racing brake pads
High average friction, aggressive in-stop behavior with instant pedal response and release,
consistently firm pedal at all temperatures, fade resistant at highest disc temperatures.
-RST 1:
High friction compound with very good initial bite and a progressive torque curve. Very fade resistant.
Suitable for applications with high downforce and / or very high grip.
-RST 2:
Medium to high friction and fade resistant compound with a mild progressive torque curve and good pedal
feel. Recommended for GT and Touring Car racing on tracks where higher temperatures are an issue.
-RST3:
Medium to high friction metal-ceramic type compound with good initial bite and still excellent modulation
and release characteristics. Medium torque, fade resitant up to 800°C. Lowest heat conductivity
in the RST range.
-RST 4:
Medium friction, high heat tolerance with consistent repeatability. Also used for rear axle applications
FWD cars and on long oval racing where more aggressive materials would disturb the vehicle set up.
Recommended for formula and open wheel racing.
PAGID RSL - long distance/endurance racing brake pads
Excellent pad wear rate under endurance conditions, excellent disc life, less aggressive than
RST giving best possible brake balance, modulation and consistency of friction under endurance
conditions.
RSL compounds are developed to comply with latest requirements in endurance racing and in accordance
with current ecological standards of the automotive industry.
-RSL 1 :
Long distance/endurance compound with very good pad and disc wear, as well as friction stability vs
temperature. Low pedal effort, slightly progressive in-stop behavior but still good modulation.
-RSL 2 :
Newly developed endurance compound based on the RSL1. The friction level bridges the gap between
-RSL1 and RS29 but with improved pad and disc wear, as well as excellent friction stability vs. temperature.
The base characteristics of low pedal effort, slightly progressive in-stop behavior with good
modulation have been retained.
PAGID RSC - racing brake pads for ceramic composite discs
Race compounds specifically engineered for a variety of ceramic disc applications.
The only available materials specifically developed for ceramic composite brake discs.
-RSC 1:
Sprint race and track day compound for all known types of ceramic brake discs.
This friction material features an ideal combination of cold friction, fade resistance
and low thermal oxidation of the disc surface fibres.
-RSC 2:
Special race compound for ceramic discs with a high fibre-content in the friction surface.
Excellent fading stability, high friction level and low pad wear.
-RSC 3:
Special race compound for ceramic discs with low fibre-content in the friction surface.
Excellent fading stability, high friction level and low pad wear.
STOPTECH SPORT PERFORMANCE PADS
StopTech Sport Performance brake pads are StopTech's newest formulation, offering an unusual combination of good bite, low noise, and extremely wide temperature range, making them ideal as "dual use" street to medium track pads. These are the standard pads included with StopTech big brakes and are now available for many OEM applications. An EXCELLENT all round pad, with performance far exceeding its price bracket.
