Performance Friction Brake Pads
For the best quality friction brake pads on the market, look no further than our selection of Performance friction brake pads.
Performance friction brake pads will take your vehicle to the next level of performance, efficiency and safety.
Performance Friction have put 80 years into research and development, and incorporated that knowledge into ground-level savvy gained from their successes in motorsports. The result is an engineering marvel
All Performance Friction pads use their patented Ionic Fusion™ bonding technology, which offers the safest and strongest bond of the friction material to the backing plate. With no rivets, you get greatly increased safety, performance and phenomenal shear resistance.
Constructed to reduce noise by 95 percent, Performance friction pads are built above and beyond industry standards. They can also withstand temperatures ranging from 572 to 1,472 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Performance Friction Brakes represent a truly innovative (and patented) approach to braking
• Superior engineering eliminates the use of asbestos and stay cool
• Champion drivers have known about and extolled the virtues of Performance braking systems for many years and the trophies have piled up
All Performance Friction brakes are made from the best materials and specific to your car's needs whether you want silent ceramic to reduce dust and noise or carbon metallic for more generic use.
Performance friction pads come in different materials as well depending on Lotus you have and what features you're looking for.
Choose the silent ceramic Performance friction pads for reduced dust and noise when you want to show off your wheels, yet not sacrifice stopping power or safety.
Or choose carbon metallic pads for more universal use. Performance friction pads made from this material preserve pedal feel and last longer because they perform at higher temperatures.
Whatever your needs, trust your Lotus to the name that says it all – Performance friction pads.

STOPS QUIETER
Outperformed all ceramic and semi-metallic pads in noise tests resulting in less than 1% noisy stops.
STOPS QUICKER
Carbon Metallic® pads deliver more stopping power throughout the operating temperature range.
- Improved ABS Response
- Firmer and More Responsive Pedal
LOWER DUST
Carbon Metallic pads contain no hazardous dust.
LAST 4 TIMES LONGER
Carbon Metallic pads have a higher thermal threshold making them more resistant to pad wear than any semi-met or ceramic pads over temperature range testing.
- Better Pad Life
- Better Rotor Life
MULTI-LAYER TECHNOLOGY
Eliminates Noise
FEA DESIGNED CHAMFER
Eliminates Noise and allows for smoother actuation and firmer pedal
IONIC FUSION
No Pad Separation
TEMPERATURE RESISTANT SHIMS
Final Noise Barrier; Does not deteriorate with temperature
PATENTED POWDER COATING
Reduces Corrosion and Extends Pad Life
The first step is to upgrade the brake pads from the organic or semi-metallic original equipment material to a Carbon Metallic® pad…We found that these less compressible pads improved initial bite and reduced by nearly a half inch the pedal travel…” -
Performance Friction street pads are made with the same process and technology as our championship-winning race pads to give you stopping power that’s worthy enough for the track.
MOST ADVANCED FRICTION COMPOUND
- Carbon Metallic® delivers more stopping power than any other brake pad
- Not a semi-metallic compound
- Unique friction material outperforms ceramic and semi-metallic pads in noise and vibration tests
- Meets all environmental standards—including newly passed copper limitations
01 is one of the most popular race compounds in the Performance Friction arsenal. Slightly higher bite and torque for the first 2/3's of the stop than 83 compound. At the end of the stop, 01 compound has less torque scatter for improved modulation with excellent release and a flat torque curve. 01 compound is very easy on the discs with very low wear, on par with 83 compounds
