FSD4830 – Ferodo Racing DS Performance Front Brake Pad

This compound has been designed specifically for light track use applications. It combines many of the characteristics found in a pure racing material (high friction, absence of fade) but has improved cold performance, and reduced disc wear and noise. This results in a consistent brake feel for the driver meaning that the braking torque is a linear response to pedal pressure.

Note: DS Performance pads are R90 compliant brake pads, suitable for road and contain pad wear sensors where applicable.

Check out the information below to choose the right compound for your Brake setup. Bear in mind utilising the incorrect compound for certain activities has the possibility of reducing performance and invalidating warranty.

DSPerformance

Suitable For: Street & Fast Road

DS Performance is recommended for road use only. R90 compliant (EU standard for road pads).

*This is the average coefficient of friction from a fast road testing schedule, it would be lower in a test schedule representative of race use.

Ferodo ds performance brake pads

DS2500

Suitable for: Track day & Light Race

Looking for more? DS2500 Brake Pads are amongst the foremost high performance track day pads in the business. It is also suitable for some light duty front and many rear pure race applications.

  • The key features of DS Performance are:
  • High friction coefficient (0.46 average)
  • Excellent disc life
  • Low wheel dust
  • Racing “feel”
  • Low heat transmission to caliper – thus avoiding fluid boil
  • Track day & light race use for all vehicle types
  • Road style refinement but with race material ability to withstand heat with respect to life and µ
  • Average friction coefficient of 0.42 over working temperature range of 20°-500°C

Precision Engineering
All of the pad back-plates are manufactured from high tensile steel meaning minimum distortion when subjected to the high clamping forces common in motorsport use.
Pads are manufactured to maintain high tolerances on the pad and back-plate dimensions including : flatness , parallelism and overall thickness. This results in a rapid and uniform transmission of pressure from the brake system to the pads.

Thermal Under-layer
Unlike many competitive products all Ferodo Racing brake pads incorporate a thermal under-layer between the backing-plate and the friction material. This reduces the brake caliper’s operating temperature by up to 80 deg C and significantly reduces the risk of boiling the brake fluid which causes a “spongy” feeling in the pedal.

Disc Friendly
Unlike many competitive products Ferodo pads are kind on brake discs. Ferodo pads are developed to optimize both the pad and disc life. Our philosophy is not to increase pad life with the casualty of excessive disc wear.

High Controllability
All Ferodo Racing brake pads are engineered to perform with a relatively constant coefficient of friction (mu) across a wide range of temperatures, pressures and vehicle speeds. This results in a consistent brake feel for the driver meaning that the braking torque is a linear response to pedal pressure.

Thank you, Team PP

In the words of the Vehicle Standards Agency (VCA), type approval provides "confirmation that production and samples of a design will meet specified performance standards".

For emissions components this encompasses noise, emissions and balanced back pressure, which have a strong influence on maintaining engine performance (power), and fuel efficiency. Type approval ensures that an aftermarket component will reach, or exceed the performance standard of the corresponding OE part.

Type-approval then, is a certain guarantee that an end user will receive a product of OE equivalent performance attributes.

Products on the Progressive Parts website that meet this approval will be clearly marked or labelled EC or ECE approved.
