Ferodo DS1.11 Front Brake Pads

Ferodo Compound Code W

The DS1.11 is one of Ferodo's latest race pad offerings. It is an endurance compound designed for extended heavy use on the track. The DS1.11 is known for its extremely flat torque curve, which means that as temperatures go up, the response through the brake pedal remains consistent. If you want a pad that you can thrash all day without having it burn up or fade, the DS1.11 is a great choice.

When used on fast, heavy cars on the track with race tires, pad wear rates tend to be higher than some of the full track pad compounds. Under those conditions, Essex would recommend the Ferodo DS1.11 or DSUNO.

Several brake pads on the market boast 'ceramic' technology. DS1.11 is the real thing. It is based upon a chemical family known as Siloxanes. Unlike carbon based materials, siloxane chains do not decompose at high temperatures and so DS1.11 keeps on working up to the highest temperatures a brake pad could ever see. That means it won't fade and has excellent life, the best in the Ferodo Racing range. Moreover the performance remains exactly the same throughout the pad's (long) life. It is formulated to provide a very flat friction profile at a medium/high level of friction. The pad compression is very low, always, and so pedal travel is short and consistent.

Main Characteristics

• High coefficient of friction (0,50) at all speeds and temperatures
• Excellent life of pad and disc
• High initial bite
• Predictability and control because of the unvarying torque output
• Low off-brake drag/Excellent release
• Unvarying performance throughout pad life
• Firm pedal. Always

WARNING: DS1.11 IS NOT SUITABLE FOR ROAD USE
