Carbotech AX6™ Performance Brake Pads
Autocross-specific pad, also good for light driving school use
Purchase Carbotech AX6™ Performance Brake Pads
Carbotech produces some of the highest performing
brake pads in the world directly from their research and manufacturing plant in
Concord, NC, the racing headquarters of the USA. Carbotech Performance Brakes
utilize application specific compounds that are "rotor friendly,"
eliminating the grabbing and locking up that keep so many drivers and race cars
from performing at their peak. You want to go deep to gain those precious
fractions of a second before you need to brake, and Carbotech brakes let you do
just that.
Designed by racers for racers, Carbotech brakes
can be specified to meet the needs of your car and driving style. Just give us a
call and we can recommend the compounds that will be perfect for your front and
rear pads and shoes, assuring that they perform together with optimum
effectiveness.
The AX6™ takes the place of the Panther Plus™
compound that was so successful. AX6™ was specifically engineered for
Autocross applications. A high torque brake compound delivering reliable and
consistent performance over a very wide operating temperature range (150°F
to 1250°F +). Advanced compound matrix provides an excellent initial
“bite”, high coefficient of friction, and very progressive brake modulation
and release characteristics. AX6™ offers high fade resistance, rotor
friendliness at all temperatures, excellent cold stopping power, and non
corrosive dust. As a result, AX6™ is an excellent choice for Autocross &
novice track day drivers and beginner high performance driver education (HPDE)
drivers on street driven cars using street tires eliminating the need to change
brake pads at the track.
AX6™ has gained tremendous popularity with SCCA
Prosolo/Solo2 competitors for its fantastic bite, release & modulation. Many
drivers use the AX6™ for street driving as well, even though Carbotech
doesn’t recommend street driving with AX6™ due to possible elevated levels
of dust and noise. AX6™ is NOT a race compound, and should not be used as
such. AX6™ shouldn’t be used by any intermediate or advanced track day
drivers, and should not be used with “R” compound tires (racing tires). Cars
in excess of 300hp and/or 3,000lbs should not use AX6™ for any track use.
