Performance - MK2 Focus All Models

This compound has been designed specifically for road use. It combines many of the characteristics found in a pure racing material (high friction, absence of fade) but has improved cold performance, and reduced disc wear and noise.The key features of DS Performance are:High friction coefficient (0.46 average)Excellent disc lifeLow wheel dustRacing "feel"Low heat transmission to caliper - thus avoiding fluid boilDS Performance is recommended for road use only. R90 compliant (EU standard for road pads).

DS2500 (H)• Track day & light race use for all vehicle types• Road style refinement but with race materialability to withstand heat with respect to life and µ• Average friction coefficient of 0.42 over workingtemperature range of 20°-500°C Precision EngineeringAll of the pad back-plates are manufactured from high tensile steel meaning minimum distortionwhen subjected to the high clamping forces common in motorsport use.Pads are manufactured to maintain high tolerances on the pad and back-plate dimensions including :flatness , parallelism and overall thickness.This results in a rapid and uniform transmission of pressure from the brake system to the pads. Thermal Under-layerUnlike many competitive products all Ferodo Racing brake pads incorporate a thermal under-layerbetween the backing-plate and the friction material.This reduces the brake caliper’s operating temperature by up to 80 deg C and significantly reducesthe risk of boiling the brake fluid which causes a “spongy” feeling in the pedal. Disc FriendlyUnlike many competitive products Ferodo pads are kind on brake discs.Ferodo pads are developed to optimize both the pad and disc life. Our philosophy is not to increasepad life with the casualty of excessive disc wear. High ControllabilityAll Ferodo Racing brake pads are engineered to perform with a relatively constant coefficient of friction(mu) across a wide range of temperatures , pressures and vehicle speeds.This results in a consistent brake feel for the driver meaning that the braking torque is a linear responseto pedal pressure.
