Racing Compound Characteristics
 |
| Pagid RS4-2-1 Black
High Performance compound with low fading characteristics and high coldfriction. The RS 4-2-1 is a most comfortable medium friction compoundand very easy on the discs (rotors). Very popular for brake upgradesor tuning. It is OE on various Super Sports Cars including AstonMartin, Bugatti, Ferrari, Lamborgini, Lotus or McLaren. Suitable forstreet and light track use such as track days or driving education events. |  |
| Pagid RS4-2 Blue
Medium friction racing compound with immediate low temperatureresponse. Fading resistance up to 500°C ( 930°F). The RS 4-2 bedsquickly and has a very good modulation (controllability). It is aclassic Rally compound and one of the most commonly used pad in smallsingle-seaters (F3, F-Ford, F-BMW, F-Renault etc.). Popular also inshowroom stock racing and club racing. Can be used as a rear pad incombination with a higher friction front pad. |  |
| Pagid RS4-4 Orange
Medium friction racing compound with a higher average friction valuethan the RS 4-2. It is disc friendly with a predictable, non-aggressivefriction behaviour (stable torque). Fading resistance up to 560°C(1,050°F). It is a very good rear compound for touring car applicationsin combination with RS 14 front pads. Application: Club racing (verypopular in Porsche club racing), Touring cars, GT cars andsingle-seaters up to F3. |  |
| Pagid RS5 Blue
New medium friction ceramic type racing compound, fading resistant upto 650ºC (1,200ºF). The RS5's high initial bite combined with theflattest torque curve of all PAGID racing materials guarantees anexcellent modulation characteristic and controllability. Very popularin F3 racing. Application: all single-seaters, Touring cars, GT cars,Rally cars. |  |
| Pagid RS14 Black
Medium-high friction racing compound with high initial bite, excellentrelease characteristic, very good modulation (controllability) and low heat conductivity dueto the high ceramic content . The RS14 has a low wearrate and is fade-resistant up to a temperature of 650°C (1,200°F).Applications: Touring cars, Rally cars (tarmac), GT cars, WSC, DP,single-seaters, NASCAR . |  |
| Pagid RS15 Grey
High friction racing compound with high content of ceramic materials,fade resistance up to 700ºC (1,300ºF). It combines a 20% higherfriction value than the RS14 with a slightly increased pad wear.Although the RS15 has a good controllability and release characteristic,it needs finesse to avoid over braking the car, especially withlightweight cars or cars with boosted brakes. Applications: Touringcars, Rally cars (tarmac), GT cars, WSC, high down-forcesingle-seaters, NASCAR. |  |
| Pagid RS19 Yellow
Best compound for endurance racing on the basis of the RS14. A slightreduction of the friction value improves the modulation(controllability). Nevertheless, the friction value is enough for carswithout power-assisted brake system and ensures comfortable low efforton the brake pedal. Constant temperatures up to 600°C (1,100°F) arepossible. The combination of friction value, fading stability and lowwear rates on pads and discs (rotors) realised with this material isunmatched up to now. Due to its excellent release characteristics andcontrollability PAGID endurance materials are also often used forsprint races. A multiple winner of Daytona 24h, Le Mans 24h, Sebring12h, Spa 24 h, Nürburgring 24h, often with no pad change and usually nodisc (rotor) change. Application: All endurance racing cars from GroupN (Speed-WC, Grand Am Cup), Group A up to GT and Sport-Prototypes(Grand Am DP). |  |
| Pagid RS29 Yellow
RS29 combines the outstanding wear rate of the RS19 with a slightlyhigher coefficient of friction and initial bite. Due to its excellentdriveability PAGID endurance materials are also often used for sprintraces. Application: All endurance racing cars from group N (Speed-WC,Grand Am Cup), Group A up to GT and Sport-Prototypes (Grand Am DP). |
