Pagid Racing E1265 in RST1 compound brake pads for various Caterham cars
£286.95
Pagid Racing RST brakepads are excellent brakepads for sprint races or rally cars.
RST brakepads have consistent firm pedal at all temperatures with good cold friction starts, even fade resistant at the highest disc temperatures.
With their good modulation and controllability they provide the driver with progressive in-stop behavior and instant pedal response.
application range:
Rally tarmac, GT cars and Touring cars circuit racing (sprint), high down-force formula cars, NASCAR. Suitable for applications in heavy cars and where high torque is necessary against small diameter rotors.
Description:
RST 1 has a very high friction level and high temperature resistance. It is a semi metallic resin bonded material containing steel fibers. Cold friction and initial bite makes this material most appropriate for Rally and NASCAR applications.
Pad fitting:
New brake pads must move freely in the caliper guides. Always use the appropriate pad shape to ensure proper fit.
When new pads are installed, always ensure that the pedal is pumped up to take up any caliper piston travel prior to driving the vehicle.
Brake pad bedding in:
In the first phase of the bedding in procedure, you have to create a perfect contact-pattern between disc and pad.
And this is how it works: you have to do about 10 stops with low pressure and low temperature from 150 km/h to approximately 80 km/h.
The distance between each brake stop should be between 600 and 800 meters.
Pad fade:
If the temperature between pad and disc gets too high, gasses build up an air cushion between pad and disc. The pedal remains stiff, but the stopping power is reduced.
Solutions are an improved cooling, change to a higher temperature range pad material or a higher mass brake disc.
Brake pad size:
A bigger pad does not mean a bigger stopping power.
But the greater heat capacity of the larger pad can improve modulation, wear rate and lead to more consistent performance.
Brake balance:
A perfect brake balance is important in order to reach a minimum stopping distance by maintaining good vehicle stability.
The bias setting can be done with either correct selection of the friction material and respective friction coefficients or also by race cars which are having a balance bar by adjusting the balance bar into the correct position.
Brake backingplate:
To guarantee a perfect connection between friction material and backing plate, PAGID Racing is using a specific retention system with brass studs that are welded directly to the backplate.
These brass studs are softer than the brake disc (rotor) and wear away as the pad is consumed causing no damage to the disc.
