FAQs

Are Pagid RSC1 pads suitable for daily driving?

No, the Pagid RSC1 pads are designed for competition and track day use only and are not approved for road use. They may not meet street legality requirements and could compromise safety on public roads.

What type of brake discs do I need for these pads?

These pads are specifically engineered to be used with ceramic brake discs. Using them with standard cast-iron rotors is not recommended and may lead to improper performance or damage.

How do I bed-in the RSC1 pads?

Proper bedding-in is essential. Consult the Pagid technical documentation or a professional mechanic for the specific recommended procedure, as it typically involves a series of moderate to heavy stops from varying speeds to ensure even transfer of pad material to the rotor.

What is the expected lifespan of these brake pads?

The Pagid RSC1 pads have a medium to high wear rate due to their performance-oriented compound. Lifespan will vary significantly depending on driving style, track conditions, and the intensity of use. Regular inspection is recommended.

Will these pads damage my ceramic discs?

No, these pads are designed to be 'kind to discs,' meaning they aim to minimize wear and prolong the life of ceramic brake rotors when used as intended.

Can I use these pads on the rear of my vehicle?

The RSC1 compound is available for both front and rear applications. Ensure you are purchasing the correct part number for your vehicle's front or rear axle and that it is specified for ceramic discs.

Troubleshooting

Brake judder or vibration

This could indicate uneven pad material transfer or rotor issues. Ensure proper bedding-in was completed. Inspect rotors for damage or warping. Consult a professional mechanic if the issue persists.

Reduced braking performance

Check for pad wear, contamination of the pad surface or rotor, or brake fluid issues. Ensure the pads are correctly installed and bedded-in. Inspect for any air in the brake lines.

Excessive noise (squeal or grind)

While some noise can be characteristic of performance pads, excessive or unusual noise may indicate improper installation, worn rotors, or debris. Check pad backing shims and ensure they are correctly seated. Inspect rotor surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These brake pads are designed exclusively for use with ceramic brake discs. They are not compatible with standard cast-iron rotors. Ensure your vehicle is equipped with ceramic brake discs before installation.

Installation: Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic familiar with performance brake systems. Proper bedding-in procedures are crucial for achieving optimal performance and longevity. Consult the Pagid technical documentation or your mechanic for the recommended bedding-in process.

Care: Since these pads are for competition use, regular inspection is recommended. Check for wear and debris after each track event. Keep the brake system clean and free from contaminants. Due to their specialized nature, cleaning usually involves ensuring the rotor surface is clear and checking for any foreign material between the pad and rotor.
