Hawk Performance has dominated Motorsports race tracks for more than 15 years, offering highly-engineered friction products for nearly every type of racing!
Blue-42 (‘EE’ Compound Code) Intermediate initial bite, increased mid Mu characteristics, and low to mid-temperature range.
Blue-9012 (‘E’ Compound Code)
Black (‘M’ Compound Code) Medium torque and temperature compound designed to be a good, all-purpose low- cost racing brake pad.
DR97 (‘J’ Compound Code) Excellent static and dynamic coe cient of friction. Smooth linear torque. Low pad and rotor wear. For use in drag racing.
MT 4 (‘L’ Compound Code) Medium/High torque and temperature compound with medium/high initial bite. For circle track cars under 2800 lbs without high deceleration rates.
Metallic (‘MB’ Compound Code) High torque with linear in-braking characteristics across temperature ranges, allowing the driver to brake harder, longer without sacrificing the life of the pad.
HT-10 (‘S’ Compound Code) Intermediate to high torque with a smooth initial bite. Very consistent pedal feel. Excellent modulation and release characteristics.
Note: Hawk Performance burnishes its HP Plus brake pads as a final step in the factory, but all brake pads have to be bedded-in with the rotors (new or used) that they will be used against. Properly bedding-in new brake pads results in a transfer film being generated at the pad and rotor interface to maximize brake performance.
