TCE Stocked Brake Pads

 

TCE stocks the most common pads for our, and Wilwood's street kits. As of March 2024 we are no longer going to stock race pads. Happy to get them for you but the inventory and carrying costs no longer make it feasable. We have a limited number of Race Compound pads on sale on the Discount page under Products above. *Other compounds may yet be available from Wilwood but not stocked.

 

"BP-10" Compound


The standard pad for nearly all TCE street kits and most Wilwood factory kits. This pad offers the best combo of low noise, dust and wear in the product line. It is not a racing compound but when pushed hard on the street its recovery is acceptible and the pad does not exhibit excessive tansfer or chunking. You'll feel it's giving up when the temps rise- a sign to back off the hard use and consider an alternate compound. 

"BP-20" Compound


BP20 was a hit for users looking to step up bite and temperature over BP10 yet not endure the wear and tear of dedicated track pads. As rotor temperatures rise, BP20 ramps up in a progressive manner to meet the needs of an elevated Cf application. BP20 will have a higher wear rate, noise level and dust level than BP10 and could be considered acceptable for a daily driver pad. For those looking for the Dual Purpose pad BP20 may prove a good choice. This pad is not however a dedicated open track pad for sustained high temperature use.

"Pro-Matrix" or PM Compound

 

ProMatrix is Wilwood's latest performance street compound for many OE applications. PM is similar to BP20 where no longer available and offers a higher Cf and temperature range than BP10. A good choice for spirited street use or light track use (limited) where a pad change is not desired from street to track. It however is not a formulated racing pad. Stocking only for thre SX6 caliper.

"BP Q" Compound

 

New for 2024 the BP-Q pad is the defualt pad in the TX line of calipers for it's smooth initial bite and durable performance through a broad range of termperature. The pad works much the same as the older BP-20 pads yet has more inital bite. Rotor wear should prove less than that of the 20s offering longer life of both the rotor and pad.

 

 

 

 

Pad Wear Spacers and Titanium Heat Shields

Pad Spacers are inserted behind worn brake pads to maximize friction material use without piston binding and to ensure proper piston to bore concentricity thus preventing damage to the housing wall and sticking pistons. When pads are worn down 30-50% installing these wear plates will keep the pistons inside the caliper where they belong! A very light amount of anti-squeal lube or silicone can be used to bond the plates to the brake pad backing to reduce pad rattle. TCE now manufactures pad spacers for most of our kits as well as cross fitting a number of other kits using the same pad profile. Pad spacers are produced from steel and zinc plated.

 

TCE's Titanium Heat Shields provide a thermal barrier between the brake pad and pistons reducing heat transfer to the the caliper body and fluid. This temperature reduction reduces fliuid temps associsted wtih "boiled" brake fluid and the rusultant soft pedal, loss of tactital feel and poor braking performance. Sold in sets of 4 these shields are but .032" thick and thus fit behind new pads as well as old pads. For even more protection they can be stacked up or used in conjuntion with our Pad Spacers above.
