Although designed primarily for endurance racing, many competitors use this material successfully for sprint and short distance races also. RS29 has also found favor in the growing track day market due to the level of control, good cold performance, long life and low disc wear. RS 14: The PAGID RS14 (Black) is a high friction value ceramic compound with very good modulation and high fade resistance. A very popular, aggressive pad with strong initial bite and high torque. In addition to the track-day environment, RS14 has shown success in short- to medium-distance circuit racing as well as gravel and tarmac rallying. RSL1: The Pagid RSL1 has a high ceramic content with superior thermal insulation and higher heat resistance than metallic pad compounds. They feature excellent pad wear under endurance conditions, excellent rotor life, and are less aggressive than RST pads with excellent brake balance and modulation. RSC 1: The Pagid RSC1 is a good street/track compromise for enthusiasts with Carbon-Ceramic Brakes. Used for sprint racing and track days compound with all known types of ceramic brake discs. An ideal combination of cold friction, fade resistance and low thermal oxidation of the disc surface. RST 3: RST 3 is a medium-high friction metal-ceramic compound containing steel fibers and is therefore the perfect complement of the RST product family. It captivates by its low heat conductivity.

RSL 29: The PAGID RS29 (Yellow) is the world-leading endurance brake pad used by most of the winning teams in motorsport.  The racing compound combines the outstanding wear rate of the RS19 with a slightly higher coefficient of friction and initial bite. Based on the RS14, A slight reduction of the friction value improves the modulation (controllability). Nevertheless, the friction value is enough for cars without power-assisted brake system and ensures comfortable low effort on the brake pedal. Constant temperatures up to 600°C (1,100°F) are possible. This combination of friction value, fading stability and low wear rates on pads and discs (rotors) is unmatched. Due to its excellent release characteristics and controllability PAGID endurance materials are also often used for sprint races. Pagid RS29 with a very similar friction coefficient to RS19 with improvements in initial bite offering quicker response and slightly more temperature stable at the upper levels of the temperature range. Developments in raw material selection and compounding have resulted in improvements also in pedal feel and feedback, helping with modulation particularly on lighter applications. This material provides very good levels of performance and response at all temperature levels, only slight temperature inputs are required to bring the pad up to its optimum performance level. Another favourite with endurance racers having won many classes at all major endurance events, such as Le-Mans, Daytona, Spa, Nurburgring, etc. Due to the exceptional pad life and very low wear on brake discs it has been possible to run 24 hours without a change of pads or discs. Able to withstand slightly higher disc temperatures than RS19, this has proved more suitable for applications running very high disc temperatures. Although designed primarily for endurance racing, because of the consistent levels of performance and user friendliness many competitors use this material successfully for sprint and short distance races also. RS29 has also found favour in the growing track day market due to the level of control, good cold performance, long life and low disc wear. RS 44: A Carbon based friction material developed from RS4-2 but with a progressively increasing friction curve, giving it lower friction than RS4-2 below 300°c and higher friction above 300°c. It offers slightly less initial bite and low temperature response than RS4-2, but with the same high levels of controllability. The wear rate of RS4-4 is very similar to RS4- 2, but is slightly better in terms of wear at higher temperatures. Disc wear as with all other PAGID materials is exceptional and thermal stressing and tension cracks of the disc surface are greatly reduced. RS4-4 also has extended operating temperature limits, increasing fade resistance, and allowing braking deeper into the corner without wheel lock and fading issues. This compound is available in fewer pad shapes than RS4-2, and is particularly popular in Porsche club racing, and has been fitted as an OEM on such high performance road vehicles as Porsche 993 RS and GT2 for example. In road applications this compound exhibits low brake noise. A very versatile pad for use on both front and rear axle’s, is also a very good rear pad in conjunction with RS14 / RS15 on front axles of front wheel drive touring cars, etc.

Girodisc Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio with CCM Rotors - Rear Rotors The Girodisc system is a direct replacement for the OE disc. No modifications are necessary. The disc will bolt directly to the car and work with OE calipers perfectly. By upgrading your brakes with lightweight high performance replacements as opposed to a big brake kit, your factory bias is maintained as well as your ABS efficiency. This reduction in rotational and unsprung weight allows for quicker acceleration and suspension response. Girodisc Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio with oem CCM rotors Details: Manufacturer: Giro Disc Manufacturer Part Number: A2-209 Surface: Slotted Material: Steel Intended for Street/Track Use: Yes For Use with Stock Calipers: Yes Rotor Construction: Vented Rotor Style: Slotted surface Rotor Material: Iron Rotor Finish: Black E-coat Quantity: Sold pair (one axle set) Girodisc Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio with OEM CCM rotors - Rear Rotors Fitment: Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio 2016+ Girodisc Advantages: GiroDisc brake kits are seen at every track weekend on very exotic and extreme track cars. What made GiroDisc owners leave their OEM rotors and upgrade to a 2 piece GiroDisc kit? Less Rotating Mass via 2 piece design Lightweight 6061-T6 Aluminum Hat Grade 12 floating hardware to allow the rotor to grow when heated Curved vane design creates a cooler rotor Significant cost reduction compared to OEM GiroDisc Rotor Hat: The GiroDisc rear central is manufactured using aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminum. Less weight creates a huge advantage in acceleration and braking. Anyone who has spent the money for a lightweight double disk clutch kit with aluminum flywheel knows the importance of rotating mass. Using a lightweight rotor kit allows the brakes to decelerate the vehicle not the rotor. GiroDisc Floating Rotor Ring: Quality hi-carbon cast iron is the foundation of every GiroDisc brake rotor. Every rotor ring is made carefully in house at the GiroDisc factory in Washington state. The GiroDisc rotor utilizes a curved vane design that was originally developed in racing to act as a centrifugal air pump to force cooling air from the center of the rotor ring to the outside. This principle is similar to what is know as a squirrel cage fan design. By having impellers (vanes) between the two rotor faces, the air is moved radially, from the center outward, changing the direction of the airflow and increasing velocity. This design is mechanically strong, reliable very effective. Chances are your street cars heater blower motor and home furnace utilize GiroDisc Rotor Ring Hardware: The GiroDisc rotor ring and light-wight aluminum hat have a floating mount system, which utilizes 8 or 10 high strength alloy steel drive pins, manufactured by Girodisc in the USA to our own specifications and cadmium plated for a long lasting corrosion resistance. These drive pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc. The drive pins are secured by grade 12 cap screws with hardened washers. In order to keep the rotors from making noise when cold, the pins are mounted with anti-noise spring washers on the rotor side which allow the rotor to grow with heat expansion but eliminate the rattle and noise associated with floating rotors. This float also allows the rotor to self center between the pads. GiroDisc Rotor Ring Replacement: Once the Girodisc system is in place, simply replace the cast iron rotor when needed. Your GiroDisc replacement rotor rings come complete with 2 new rotor rings and all required floating rotor hardware. This is a very simple task that is quite fun. The aluminum rotor hat usually does not ever need replacement unless bent or damaged. If you damaged has reached your GiroDisc hat, you almost have quite a bunch of other things to replace also. The hat is rugged and overly strong.
