Hawk HP Plus Brake Pads  Search by vehicle

Hawk HP Plus Sport/Track disc brake pads are designed for sports cars, coupes & sedans for sport driving in autocross, Solo II & many “track day” applications. Additionally, the Hawk Performance HP Plus Ferro-Carbon compound can take the heat at the track & get you home safely without having to change your brake pads in & out. This compound was designed for the serious street & autocross enthusiast. Warning! Due to the dramatic friction levels produced by this product to achieve "race-level" braking, rotor wear, noise, dust, & pad life may be affected. The high friction level of Hawk HP Plus pads will be more responsive than most standard original brakes & their high resistance to brake fade makes them a superb upgrade for high performance streetcars used in competition, for high speed driving or that encounter repetitive heavy braking.

   
Hawk HPS Brake Pads  Search by vehicle

Hawk Performance HPS Road/Sport disc brake pads are designed for sports cars, coupes, sedans & pickup trucks & sport utility vehicles used for high speed driving or that may encounter repetitive heavy braking. Hawk Performance HPS Ferro-Carbon compound brake pads provide advanced braking characteristics to enhance the driving experience. This unique compound combines the safety & quality of aerospace design partnered with the braking technology of motorsports. Hawk Performance HPS pads offer 20-40% more stopping power & higher resistance to brake fade than most Original Equipment or standard replacement pads. This makes them more responsive & durable than most standard original brakes & makes Hawk Performance HPS pads the first… & least expensive…way to increase the stopping power of cars & light trucks. As standard brake pads wear, brake dust is released as the friction material wears in everyday braking. Hawk Performance HPS brake pads are formulated to run cleaner & release extremely low levels of dust in normal street driving.
   
Hawk LTS Brake Pads  Search by vehicle

Heavier vehicles with larger brake systems are more likely to experience higher temperatures, requiring a brake pad that has excellent heat dissipation characteristics. Hawk Performance has applied their severe-duty friction technology to the braking demands of light trucks & SUVs. Their new LTS (Light Truck & SUV) Ferro-Carbon Compound was developed utilizing cutting edge polymer research, advanced carbon fiber processing, on-vehicle field evaluations & extensive dynamometer testing. The new compound combines the durability of Hawk Performance's commercial fleet products with the elevated stopping  power of its performance street & motorsports formulations.

Hawk SuperDuty Brake Pads  Search by vehicle

Upgrade your fleet or tow vehicle's braking performance with Hawk Performance's SuperDuty, Severe-Duty compound! Hawk's SuperDuty Ferro-Carbon material is engineered for severe-duty professional truck fleets/trucks & SUVs towing heavy loads. This material offers unmatched performance under high inertia and/or repetitive braking applications. To drive safely with heavy payloads it is critical to have brakes that operate properly. Commercial fleet trucks & light trucks/SUVs carrying or towing heavy payloads experience high braking temperatures. Higher temperatures contribute to premature brake pad & rotor wear & directly effect brake pad fade or loss of friction. Hawk Performance's SuperDuty product is a severe-duty pad that has an extremely high coefficient of friction designed to provide maximum stopping power with excellent high temperature heat dissipation.
