Compound Breakdown

CP

The CP brake compound by CSG Spec is a premium performance solution for everyday road cars that can also withstand the requirements of track days and autocross with low levels of dust, noise and wear.

The CP material is very different from our line of pure motorsport sprint and endurance brake pads. It aims to being a capable track performer all while being easy to drive on the street and maintaining reasonably low levels of dusting, NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness).

In addition to great "cold" stopping power, the CP brake pads offer a much higher fade resistance than other industry standard "dual-purpose" pads.

This material is our ideal offering to bridge the gap between a street performance pad and a pure motorsport or "Race" pad which generally should not be street driven (due to high noise, dust, rotor wear).

C1XB

The C1XB brake compound by CSG Spec supplied for sprint races are developed to provide excellent overall braking performance (initial response or "bite") while maintaining pedal stroke stability, smooth brake release and fade resistance lap after lap.

Since sprint race distances are generally on the shorter side (1-4 hour races), the main emphasis is fade resistance with reasonable pad and disc wear rates.

Key development points also include ensuring that these friction materials are compatible with a wide range of tires (sport tires to racing slicks) and ABS or Traction Control ("TC") systems found on OE and motorsport applications.

A complete range of medium to higher friction materials ensures that the exact compounds can be selected depending on the specific customer, tire ranges, driver skill and platform balance needs.

C12B

Same compound as C1XB, the C12B comes ready to race! The Pads have already been bedded in on a brake dyno, so all you need to do is swap them at the track and get back out there!
