MATERIAL GP4
Characteristics
A sophisticated metal-ceramic
formulation for racing use, GP5 material is produced by ,Progressive
Powder Technology-a leader in the field of sintered technologies.
This compound material has been specially formulated for racing
use. |

Material GP4:
- racing pads intended for sport applications and for experienced
drivers;
- an advantage is a very low control force to be applied onto the
brake pedal;
- high brake efficiency at maximum speeds;
- sensitive in the entire speed range;
- no wear of brake wheels and segments;
- no brake fluid boiling;
- not recommended for rear axles of cars not provided with brake effect
divider.
FEATURES:
- Very high static friction coefficient
- Low abrasive interaction with the brake rotor material Specially
modification braking surface
- Minimal difference between wet and dry braking performance
- Good abrasive resistance
- High braking power to 550°C(max.800°C)
- The sintered friction material is soldered to the copper coated
backing plate, so separation (which can happen with organics material)
is virtually eliminated as a failure risk.
- Continuous braking effect
Material operting parametres:
Specific pressure:
.p <5,0 Mpa
Sliding speed:
...V< 30 m/s
Constant maximum temp.:
...550°C
Short time maximum temp.:
.800°C
NOTES:
- replacement of brake pads shoul be done in dry clean conditions.
If the friction material comes into contact with oil or brake fluid
and the liquit soaks into the pores of the friction material, a catastrophic
fall in friction coefficient (braking performance) could occur
- Braking performance is significantly influenced by the quantity
of the braking surface of the Disc rotor, by the age and quantity
of th brake fluid, and by the correct choice of Complementary friction
pad material.
