PAGID RS 42 Racing Brake Pad (Shape 1702) E170242010
The PAGID RS 42 is a proven racing compound for fast road* and track use. It delivers stable bite, strong pedal feel, and consistent stopping power across repeated hard stops. It is kind on discs and works from cold, making it a solid choice for track days, club racing, and tarmac rally.
Expect smooth modulation, low fade, and reliable performance over long sessions. RS 42 suits drivers who want control and confidence rather than an overly aggressive initial bite.
- Medium friction with strong control
- Works from low temperatures yet resists fade on track
- Low disc wear for longer rotor life
- Predictable pedal feel lap after lap
Typical use
