BP-20 Compound

Low friction / smooth engagement

• Low friction compound for light-duty racing applications
• Smooth, predictable engagement
• Good modulation with minimal initial bite
• Low rotor wear
• Ideal for lightweight cars or low-speed applications

BP-28 Compound

Medium friction / progressive response

• Medium friction compound with smooth initial response
• Excellent modulation and control
• Consistent performance across a wide temperature range
• Lower wear rates than higher-friction compounds
• Ideal for balanced brake setups requiring controllability

BP-30 Compound

High friction / progressive bite

• High friction compound with medium initial response
• Bite increases as rotor temperature rises
• Excellent fade resistance under sustained high heat
• Predictable, linear braking feel
• Low wear rate during long green-flag runs
• Compatible with iron or steel rotors

BP-35 Compound

High friction / strong initial bite

• High friction compound with strong initial bite
• Aggressive response for heavy braking zones
• Excellent modulation once up to temperature
• Designed for high-heat racing environments
• Ideal for heavier cars or tracks needing immediate stopping power

BP-40 Compound

Very high friction / aggressive response

• Very high friction with aggressive initial bite
• Excellent low-temperature response
• Strong, consistent braking feel
• High heat fade resistance
• Low wear rate during sustained high-temperature use
• Common choice for short-track and asphalt applications

BP-45 Compound

Maximum friction / extreme race use

• Maximum friction for extreme braking conditions
• Very aggressive initial bite
• Exceptional high-temp fade resistance
• Designed for the most demanding racing applications
• Best for experienced drivers and high-downforce cars
