VBT Hooked Discs are the latest disc face design by AP Racing. Vagbremtechnic adapted the initial design onto OEM discs for the following reasons.    1.They give improved bite 2. For high temperature track day use they give better debris clearance and reduces distortion vibration. For road use we decided to opt for the version where the outer grooves do not run out to outside diameter but stay within the confines of the disc face. For road applications they also generate less noise than straight or curved groove discs and don't suffer the fatigue cracking that drilled disc users can experience after many heat cycles.   So win win for VBT Hooked, Vagbremtechnic also take a non handed OEM casting and LeftRight the VBT Hooked pattern to ensure temperature stability and an appropriately designed disc face for either the nearside or offside of the car to give a good gas path despite not using a handed casting. We've seen some real success on a budget with these discs especially when used with a four piston caliper upgrade.   Where they really come into their own though is when theyre combined with a more capable set of brake pads - this is a real track day enabler and we find customers finding other weaker areas of their car such as tyres and suspension now that their car stops reliably again and again. VBT Hooked is the homologated disc face for BTCC and has been for three years.

Type of Application:DS2500 - Off Road Use'Track Day' - Front and Rear of vehicle'Rally' - Rear of vehicle'Circuit Sprint' - Rear of vehicle'Formula' - Front and Rear of vehicle DS3000 - Off Road Use'Rally' - Front and Rear of vehicle'Circuit Sprint' - Front of vehicle'Formula' - Front and Rear of vehicle As a general guide we recommend that you consider the following when making your material compound selection: 4WD cars = same compound front and rear Rear traction cars = same compound front and rear. Front traction cars = high friction level in the front axle (i.e. DS3000), lower friction level on the rear axle (i.e. DS2500, 4003). For further advice please contact us. DS2500 (H)Track day & light race use for all vehicle types.Road style refinement but with race material ability to withstand heat with respect to life and μ.Average friction coefficient of 0.42 over working temperature range of 20°C to 500°C. DS3000 (R)Heavy duty all-round material choice.Multiple applications - touring car, rally, single seat.Average friction coefficient of 0.48 over working temperature range of 200°C to 650°C.

To suit disc size 345mm   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.
