Description

PAGID RST 1 Racing Brake Pad (Shape 1595) S1595T01001

The PAGID RST 1 is a high-friction race compound built for hard, repeated stops. It gives a strong initial bite, consistent pedal feel, and stable braking at very high temperatures. Ideal for sprint racing and short endurance where maximum stopping power matters.

Why choose RST 1

• Very high friction with strong initial bite
• Stable performance at high temperatures
• Confident pedal feel and modulation (easy to control brake force)
• Fade resistant under repeated heavy braking
• Best on the front axle when used with a complementary rear compound

Best suited for

• Sprint race, time attack, hill climb, rally tarmac
• Short endurance stints with high grip tyres
• Drivers who want maximum bite and short stopping distances

Track use only – not recommended for road. Expect brake noise, dust, and faster disc wear compared to road pads.

Compound behaviour

• Works once warm, excels at medium-high temperatures
• High torque from cold-to-hot with strong initial response
• Moderate pad and disc wear when driven hard

Key details

Bedding guidance

Heat the pads with several medium stops to build temperature, then a few firm stops. Allow a full cool-down with minimal braking. This helps the pad layer transfer to the disc for consistent performance.
