Ferodo FCP1562R DS3000 Compound

Fitting the Nissan 350Z & Subaru WRX STI with the Brembo package rear axle, the Ferodo FCP1562R in the DS3000 compound is a medium torque, track only brake pad. From the working temperature of 392 F to 650 F, the Ferodo DS3000 features a predictable torque curve with an average friction coefficient of 0.48µ. With good cold performance and a very flat torque curve from 450 C (850 F) to 650 C (1202 F) the DS3000 is a popular track day and sprint/intermediate race pad.

Ferodo DS3000 Brake Compound Details:

The Ferodo DS3000 is a track only brake pad designed with a predictable torque curve and good cold temperature characteristics. The DS3000 compound is a legacy compound with over 25 years of championships due to its predictability and repeatability. The Ferodo DS3000 is a very popular brake pad for vintage racers as the compound characteristics allow for extended disc life at the expense of pad wear. If you have a track car with expensive or hard to replace brake discs, the Ferodo DS3000 is a great choice.

The average coefficient of friction of the Ferodo DS3000 is 0.48µ across the workable range of 392 to 1202 F. The cold friction coefficient starts at 0.40µ at 302 and reaches the peak of 0.51µ at 1022 F. This makes for a pad that is great on the early laps of a sprint race but still has the torque needed to maintain consistent pedal feel across a wide temperature range. The Ferodo DS3000 is a popular choice in brake pads for many track drivers and sprint/mid-range racers.
