FEATURES & BENEFITS
ISO/TS 16949 & ISO 14001 Certified Production
All Ferodo Racing brake pads are manufactured to the highest international ISO quality standards at
Federal Mogul’s dedicated manufacturing facility in Italy.
Every brake pad has a total of 26 separate quality controls during its manufacture which guarantees a
repeatable and consistent product within and between every batch.
Precision Engineering
All of the pad back-plates are manufactured from high tensile steel meaning minimum distortion
when 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-layer
Unlike many competitive products most Ferodo Racing brake pads incorporate a thermal under-layer
C
between the backing-plate and the friction material. M
This reduces the brake caliper’s operating temperature by up to 80 deg C and significantly reduces
the risk of boiling the brake fluid which causes a “spongy” feeling in the pedal. Y

Unlike many competitive products Ferodo pads are kind on brake discs.
K
Ferodo pads are developed to optimize both the pad and disc life. Our philosophy is not to increase
pad life with the casualty of excessive disc wear.
High Controllability
All Ferodo Racing brake pads are engineered to perform with a relatively constant coefficient of fric-
tion (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 re-
sponse to pedal pressure.
Wide Range of Material choices and Fitments
Ferodo Racing has one of the widest range of pad shapes in the racing/performance brake pad mar-
ket.
This fitment range is available with the necessary compound choice meaning that there is nearly al-
ways a solution to your needs.
