SRT

Street Road Track adjusts to your driving style, so you don’t have to adjust to the style of your brakes. They deliver consistently brilliant braking, with high tolerance, low fade, long wear and high friction in all sorts of conditions: The confidence to handle busy, unpredictable driving on the STREET where conditions can change in an instant. The reliability to negotiate mountains with your foot consistently on the brake or cruising the open ROAD with long intervals between braking. Or lap after lap of hot, hard, last second braking at the TRACK.

Bendix Street Road Track brake pads have been developed and comprehensively tested by leading friction engineers to create a pad designed to handle a variety of applications – street, road and track. We’ve rigorously assessed them against other leading brands under the most torturous conditions so Bendix Street Road Track deliver superior control and consistent braking from the first stop to the last. Have confidence to work ‘em hot and hard, knowing they’ll keep on delivering.

SRT Shims feature a unique nitrile rubber coating for reduced noise and vibration damping for quieter performance braking. This innovative technology features a thin layer of Nitrile Rubber on both sides of the Carbon Steel shim, for quieter braking. Bendix SRT’s unique rubber to metal composite material has been engineered for noise damping in disc brakes and combines a number of valuable properties: vibration insulation, compressibility and excellent adhesion.

CONTINUOUS HARD BRAKING WITH LOW FADE

Brakes get hot after a few hard stops and the friction level typically takes a dive (fade) meaning you have to push harder to get the brakes to work. The graph right shows that even as the temperature rises with continuous stops, Bendix Street Road Track maintain their friction level for the same pedal effort.

ANY SPEED, ANY PRESSURE ON THE PEDAL, THE FRICTION LEVEL MAINTAINS OPTIMUM RELIABILITY

The ideal brake pad delivers consistent response over a range of speeds and pressure on the pedal. We tested Street Road Track versus 2 leading competitors by applying the brakes in ‘snubs*’ that reduce the speed by 40km/h from the starting speed and measuring the speed and pressure sensitivity.

As the graph shows, Street Road Track demonstrates far superior friction stability which means you know what to expect every time you apply the brakes.

* A snub is a brake application that doesn’t completely stop the car.

STABLE FRICTION THROUGHOUT THE STOP AT ALL TEMPERATURES. BRAKE LATE WITH ABSOLUTE BRAKING CONTROL AND CONFIDENCE

Stability for brake race materials is paramount because it affects brake balance.

If the rears step up in friction and the fronts fade off, a hard brake will lock-up the rears and spin you into the sandpit. So we put Street Road Track through their paces on actual tracks and one of the world’s most gruelling simulation tracks.

The graph shows the temperature range as the brakes are applied into turn 1, slowing from 195km/h to 95km/m creating a “g-force” of 0.75g which is close to lock-up. This process was repeated for 10 simulated laps. The result shows extremely stable and reliable performance compared to other leading competitors.
