High Carbon Discs

Improved brake pad performance with COTEC

This advanced silicate coating is applied to the friction material of replacement brake pads, resulting in an improved contact between the brake disc and pad.

TRW COTEC brake pads can stop vehicles up to seven metres quicker than other premium brake pads during the first few stops following a pad change (known as the bedding-in period). This innovative technology means that we out-perform all major competitors during the bedding-in period of the pad, when the friction co-efficient is lower than usual.

• Discs produced with High Carbon have optimal thermal conductivity, allowing the discs to run cooler and, as a result, ensure more consistent brake performance
• A High Carbon brake disc is less likely to distort, which means less performance-related problems
• High Carbon improves the thermal behaviour of the discs, giving better stability and increased resistance to distortion and thermal cracking
• High Carbon discs also help to provide a noise and judder-free performance
