Description
The Pagid U-2405 pad comes in the following compounds:
If you are unsure what pad would work best for you, please do not hesitate to call us!
RS-14
The Pagid Black (RS 14) racing compound is a medium-high friction racing compound with high initial bite, excellent release characteristic, very good modulation (controllability) and due to the high ceramic content low heat conductivity. RS14 has a low wear rate and is fade resistant up to a temperature of 650°C (1,200°F).
Popular applications: Touring cars, Rally cars (tarmac), GT cars, WSC, DP, single-seaters, NASCAR .
RS-19
The Pagid Yellow (RS 19) racing compound is the best compound for endurance racing. Based on the RS14, A slight reduction of the friction value improves the modulation (controllability). Nevertheless, the friction value is enough for cars without power-assisted brake system and ensures comfortable low effort on the brake pedal. Constant temperatures up to 600°C (1,100°F) are possible. This combination of friction value, fading stability and low wear rates on pads and discs (rotors) is unmatched. Due to its excellent release characteristics and controllability PAGID endurance materials are also often used for sprint races. A multiple winner of Daytona 24h, Le Mans 24h, Sebring 12h, Spa 24 h, Nurburgring 24h, often with no pad change and usually no disc (rotor) change.
Popular applications: All endurance racing cars from Group N (Speed-WC, Grand Am Cup), Group A up to GT and Sport-Prototypes (Grand Am DP).
RS-29
The Pagid Yellow (RS 29) racing compound combines the outstanding wear rate of the RS19 with a slightly higher coefficient of friction and initial bite. Based on the RS14, A slight reduction of the friction value improves the modulation (controllability). Nevertheless, the friction value is enough for cars without power-assisted brake system and ensures comfortable low effort on the brake pedal. Constant temperatures up to 600°C (1,100°F) are possible. This combination of friction value, fading stability and low wear rates on pads and discs (rotors) is unmatched. Due to its excellent release characteristics and controllability PAGID endurance materials are also often used for sprint races. Due to its excellent driveability PAGID endurance materials are also often used for sprint races.
Popular applications: All endurance racing cars from group N (Speed-WC, Grand Am Cup), Group A up to GT and Sport-Prototypes (Grand Am DP).
RS 4-4
The Pagid Orange (RS 4-4) racing compound is a medium friction racing compound with a higher average friction value than the RS 4-2. It is disc friendly with a predictable, non-aggressive friction behaviour (stable torque). Fading resistance up to 560°C (1,050°F). It is a very good rear compound for touring car applications in combination with RS 14 front pads.
Popular applications: Club racing (very popular in Porsche club racing), Touring cars, GT cars and single-seater up to F3.
RST-3
The Pagid RST 3 Racing Brake Pads are a medium high-friction compound popularly used in GT/Touring, Rally and Prototype applications. The wide range of applications are a result of the RST-3’s unique combination of bite, friction and controllability. Low heat conductivity is possible through a combination of steel and acrylic fibers. Featuring excellent modulation and release characteristics.
RSL-1
The Pagid RSL 1 racing brake pads are engineered for long distance, endurance type racing. Exhibiting excellent pad wear under endurance conditions, the RSL-1 also provides excellent rotor life and modulation, and offers consistent friction in all conditions. Less aggressive then the RST level of pads, the Pagid RSL-1 has good friction stability vs. temperture, and requires very low pedal effort.
