PAGID RSH 42 Racing Brake Pad (Shape 8042) S8042H42001
Built for classic and historic racing, the PAGID RSH 42 is a dependable, medium-friction pad that delivers strong cold bite, consistent pedal feel, and excellent control. It is ideal for sprint racing, tarmac rally, hillclimb, and fast track sessions in older and historic cars that demand stable braking across a wide temperature range.
Why choose RSH 42
– Confident bite from cold with smooth, linear response as temperatures rise
– Stable friction for predictable stopping and easy modulation (fine control)
– Low pad wear with good disc life for longer service intervals
– Works well in shorter races and repeated hard stops without fade
Motorsport use only – not approved for public road use.
Typical applications
– Historic sprint and circuit racing
– Tarmac rally and hillclimb
– Track days for classic and vintage performance cars

Bed-in advice (summary)
Gently heat the pads and discs with several light-to-medium stops, then make a few firm stops to build temperature. Allow a short cool-down drive without holding the brakes on. This helps achieve full performance and even transfer on the disc surface.

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.
