Carbon Brake Discs & Pads
AP Racing has more than 40 years of experience with Carbon/Carbon brakes in F1 and Sportscars racing.
We recommend and supply a number of manufacturers materials which we consider to offer the best performance & braking characteristics together with low wear of any material currently available.
Carbon/carbon is expensive bit if managed correctly, mainly a question of temperature control, then wear rates and hence running costs can be surprisingly low.
The AP Racing range of Carbon discs and pads are available in a number of sizes, thickness and compounds.
