AP Racing 5200 Caliper (CP3215-D50 pads) - Ferodo Race Brake Pads

Ferodo race brake pads are available in several compounds. Compound choice depends upon application and driver preference. The Ferodo DS2500 is the only pad compound which should be used on the road as this works from lower temperatures. We recommend that both front and rear brake pads are changed to keep a consistent brake balance from the original setup. For rally cars where the rear brakes run cool, use a pad suited for lower temperatures.

Ferodo DS2500 is a high performance track day and fast road brake pad. The DS2500 is also suitable for some light duty front and many rear pure race applications offering excellent refinement for such a high performance pad. The main characteristics of the Ferodo DS2500 range are:

• Race Road, Track day & light race use for all vehicle types
• Road style refinement - low noise
• Ability to withstand heat with good pad life and friction coefficient.
• Average friction coefficient of 0.42 over working temperature range of 20°-500°C

DS3000 is the Ferodo Racing compound of choice. If your car is a dedicated track car fit this. It will need a few corners to get up to temperature but has a greater bite than the DS2500. It has contributed to countless wins and podium positions in many Touring car, rally & GT championships around the world. The main characteristics of the Ferodo DS3000 are:

• Heavy duty all-round material choice
• Short bedding time
• Multiple applications including touring car, rally, Group N, single seat, hill-climb
• Average friction coefficient 0.48 over working temperature range of 200°-650°C

The Ferodo 4003 range is specifically developed for lighter cars (Formula 3, Formula Ford, Formula VW, Formula Renault, Formula Campus) and occasionally for Rally use. The main characteristics of 4003 are:

• Average friction coefficient 0.46 over working temperature range of 200°-450°C
• Very short bedding time
• Excellent bite
• Low drag & Excellent release
• Offers control to avoid wheel lock when downforce reduces

DS1.11 is the Ferodo Racing Ceramic Pad compound. The uses a special compound called Siloxanes. Unlike carbon based materials, siloxane chains do not decompose at high temperatures allowing the Ferodo DS1.11 to work up to the highest temperatures. The DS1.11 won't fade and has excellent life, the best in the Ferodo Racing range. Braking Performance remains the same throughout the pad's life. It is formulated to provide a very flat friction profile at a medium/high level of friction. The pad material offers great modulation as compression is very low so pedal travel is short and consistent. The main characteristics of Ferodo DS1.11 are:

• Heavy duty endurance material
• Applications - touring car, GT, single seat
• Average friction coefficient 0.46 over working temperature range of 200°-700°C
• Long life
• Very kind to discs

Ferodo DSUNO is the latest heavy duty racing material from Ferodo Racing and is suited to endurance racing. It has replaced DS2.11 and is already race proven in GT, touring car, Formula & rally. The DSUNO range is high friction yet still gives drivers a long pad and disc life with excellent modulation and consistency of the brake pedal. The latter means the risk of wheel lock is significantly reduced without any loss of braking output. This is the ultimate feel-good pad.

• Heavy duty semi-endurance material
• Applications - touring car, GT, single seat, rally
• Average friction coefficient 0.48 over working temperature range of 200°-700°C
• Very controllable torque output
• Very kind to discs
• Long life
