COMPETITION COMPOUNDS

N03W
The N03W is a substantial step up in initial bite from ME20. The pedal is easy to modulate for a good feeling between the fast response and hard brake power especially at high-speed braking. The reaction of the compound is excellent, which enables the driver to attack a corner
with a higher speed. At lower speeds the driver only needs a swift touch of the pedal to create a good deceleration and reaction.
As usual the compound is water fade resistant and works excellent during cold conditions. It also has a fast response time in reaching working temperature and does not give the driver any unwanted surprises. The brake balance is very good at different speeds.

The N03W is suitable for drivers that likes the ME20 but would like a step up in initial bite. The wear characteristics of both pads and discs are excellent. Especially the discs are nice and shiny even after extended high heat operations and does not easily develop heat or tension cracks.

Friction average: 0.38 - 0.48µ
Temperature range: 300 - 800 ºC

N35S
The N35S has a slightly higher initial bite than N03W and represents straighter line between initial bite and brake power. It is still easy to control and a special characteristic is that driver can initiate light braking with a slight touch of the pedal and then directly continue into a
hard braking manoeuvre with high pedal pressure if it is requested. The lock up tendencies is low and it has the same easy modulation as
the N03W.
The N35S has proved to be very well balanced in both wet and dry conditions, which has made it very popular in rallying for both tarmac and gravel. It is also excellent for race cars with a very high traction and down force. This pad is very much liked by drivers that prefers not to use such a high pedal pressure and would like to have a quick initial bite and in that way keep the overall speed up and a good rhythm of driving. The high heat resistance is the same as N03W and ME20, and so are the disc and pad wear characteristics. The disc wear is exceptionally good, which makes it a safer choice for endurance races.

Friction average: 0.42 - 0.52µ
Temperature range: 300 - 800 ºC
