===RS 14 Black=== This is a medium high friction value ceramic type compound with very good modulation, high fade resistance, low heat conductivity, and a good wear rate up to a temperature of 650Β°C (1.200Β°F). * If used as a road pad they can eat discs, however when at track temperature the wear ratio will be higher in the pad providing less wear of the disk. * Not as effective from cold as the RS 4-2 compound. * Very track orientated pad so whilst safe to use on the road a driver with a road only intention may well be better to look at a different compound. Purpose(street/track/both): Track Coefficient of Friction: .44-.54 (cold-max)<br> Material: Carbon Ceramic<br> Dust: ?<br> Pad Wear: "RS14, while showing a reduction in pad wear, particularly at high temperatures...."<br> Rotor Wear: Good(on track, otherwise eats rotors)<br> Noise: Squeal on street<br> Max Temp: 800C (1472F)<br> These pads can generate a lot of squeal if not used in anger on a regular basis, so while highly rated for track work, these pads are perhaps too compromised for a road car. Incompatible with a lot of discs so check compatibility before buying.
