Porterfield R-4 Racing Compound for your BMW M2 Competition

R-4 Racing Compound

For over two decades, the Porterfield Carbon Kevlar brake pad has given racers abroad a definite world class friction material suitable for virtually any racing condition. Designed specifically for heavy duty motorsports, the Porterfield R-4 brake pad was our first and is our origi- nal Carbon Kevlar brake pad. Being able to maintain an average of a .50 friction level within a very wide temperature range gives the R-4 pad astounding versatility and makes it very suitable for a wide array of vari- ous track conditions.

With use of the latest ceramic technology, the Carbon based semi- metallic R-4 materials allow the pads to absorb tremendous amounts of heat and dissipate it at a very even rate, while at the same time insulating excessive heat from calipers. Another inherent characteristic of our carbon kevlar material is how quickly the pads warm up to race temperature which

is quite helpful during restarts, and when track time is limited.

Optimum R-4 operating temperatures are 450oF and above. When used with cast iron and steel alloy rotors, the R-4 compound requires minimal bed-in period. Throughout the entire heat range, the Carbon Kevlar material will give extremely consistent modulation and
predictability smooth release characteristics up to thresh-
old. Another benefit of our R-4 compound is that even
with the high friction levels and broad temperature
ranges, the unique properties of our compound allows
the rotors life to be extended to the maximum. This is
truly the most rotor friendly racing brake pad material
ever. Road courses, oval track, rally, vintage racing,
autocross, club events or professional racing events.
Tested and raced in countless types of competition ve-
hicles, the R-4 compound from the outset has established its reputation as a Championship winning brake pad material.

I've used R4's on three of my previous dual duty cars. E36M3, E46M3 & FRS.

What makes this pad so unique is its ability to work cold on the street w/o tearing up rotors.

But also then being able to work a track temps as well.

Only 2 other pad compounds I've run into work like this the Carbotech XP10's, 12's or higher and the Raybestos 43's.

I'm a LFB and pad modulation and feel on these pads is outstanding
