CL Brakes RC8 brake pads for AP Racing CP2561 brake caliper - 5001W43T14

The CL Brakes RC8 5001W43T14 brake pads are designed for AP Racing CP2561 brake calipers and for intensive use in motorsports, particularly in rallying and on the track.

The RC8 from CL Brakes—a brand also known in motorsports as Carbone Lorraine—is a sintered metal brake pad characterized by an average coefficient of friction of µ = 0.60. Its very high friction level provides significant braking torque under the demanding conditions encountered in competition.

The RC8 is particularly well-suited for competition cars requiring high brake power. It is designed for applications where strong bite and a crisp pedal reaction are desired, particularly in rallying and on the racetrack.

Compared to CL Brakes compounds with a lower coefficient of friction, the RC8 offers more aggressive braking. Its high braking torque therefore makes it primarily suited for competition setups capable of utilizing this level of friction.

CL Brakes Carbone Lorraine RC8 brake pads use a sintered metal friction material and NoNiTech technology.
