(Hawk compound code Z)
Hawk Performance Cermaic Pads are a very low dust, low noise, and low bite street pad. They are perfect for quiet, clean, around-town operation. They are not a good choice for aggressive driving, as their maximum operating temperature is quite low. Their bite is also rather low, and will probably not appeal to the customer seeking maximum performance.
Ultimate stopping power in an ultra-low dust, low noise ceramic compound!
Hawk Performance has introduced a premium, high performance, ultra-low dust, low noise compound called Performance Ceramic.
Performance Ceramic is engineered to reduce brake NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness), creating a quieter performing brake pad. Furthermore, the ceramic brake pad formula has a linear friction profile that allows your ABS brake system to work more effectively. With Performance Ceramic you can expect reduced brake pad wear, lower dust output levels and a rotor-friendly brake pad. Performance Ceramic – quiet, clean & fast stopping!
Key Features:
- Increased stopping power
- Increased rotor life
- Extended pad life
- Ultra-low dust
- Extremely quiet
- Stable friction output Recommended for import domestic automobiles, luxury SUV’s, sports trucks & vans.
All Hawk Performance street brake pads provide a limited lifetime warranty, ensuring products to be free of defects from manufacturer’s workmanship and materials. See the FAQ section on our website (www.hawkperformance.com) warranty information.
Note:
Hawk Performance burnishes its Performance Ceramic 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.
