Part #: HB167G.778

Overview

The Hawk Performance DTC-60 Race Brake Pads are engineered for high-performance racing applications where extreme deceleration and increased downforce are required. Designed specifically for racing environments, these brake pads deliver exceptional stopping power, modulation, and release characteristics, making them a popular choice among professional racers and serious enthusiasts alike. Whether you're competing on pavement, dirt, or off-road tracks, the DTC-60 pads are built to handle the demanding conditions of high-speed racing while maintaining consistent performance.

If your vehicle is subjected to intense braking forces during competitive events, the DTC-60 provides the reliability and control needed to optimize your lap times and safety. These pads are ideal for lightweight front axle applications, with or without ABS, and excel in scenarios where precise brake modulation and torque control are critical. With their superior release properties, you'll experience reduced brake fade and improved pedal feel, giving you confidence during aggressive driving.

Key Features

The Hawk Performance DTC-60 Race Brake Pads incorporate advanced materials and design features to meet the rigorous demands of racing. Key features include:

• High-Performance Friction Material: The DTC-60 compound offers extremely high deceleration rates, providing powerful braking performance without sacrificing modulation or control.
• Superior Modulation and Release: Engineered for excellent torque control and smooth release, these pads help prevent brake fade and ensure consistent stopping power lap after lap.
• Low Rotor Wear: Despite their aggressive braking capabilities, the pads are designed to minimize abrasive rotor wear, extending the lifespan of your rotors during intense racing sessions.
• Application Versatility: Suitable for NASCAR, ARCA, Super Late models, pavement circle track racing, and off-road applications, making them a versatile choice for various racing disciplines.
• Split Friction Compatibility: Recommended for use with DTC-70 pads when split friction between axles is desired, allowing for tailored brake balance and performance.
• Excellent Heat Resistance: Capable of handling the high temperatures generated during aggressive braking, ensuring reliable performance under race conditions.
• Low Dust Production: Designed to produce minimal brake dust, helping keep your wheels cleaner during and after races.
• Consistent Performance: Maintains high levels of deceleration and modulation throughout the race, reducing the need for frequent pad changes.

Construction & Design

The DTC-60 brake pads feature a specialized friction compound bonded to a durable backing plate, engineered for maximum thermal stability and wear resistance. The pads are constructed with high-quality materials that withstand the extreme heat and stress of racing environments. Their design incorporates optimized pad shape and surface area to ensure even pressure distribution and consistent contact with the rotor.

The advanced formulation and manufacturing processes used in these pads result in a product that offers excellent modulation, quick pad bed-in, and reliable release characteristics. The pads are compatible with a variety of caliper types and are designed to fit standard racing brake systems, providing a straightforward upgrade for race teams and serious hobbyists.

Installation & Fitment

The DTC-60 brake pads are designed as direct replacements for compatible racing calipers. Installation is straightforward for those familiar with racing brake systems, typically involving removing the existing pads and installing the new ones with standard hardware. No special modifications, cutting, or tuning are required, making them a convenient upgrade for race vehicles.

It is recommended to bed-in the pads properly before racing to maximize their performance and lifespan. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for installation and break-in procedures to ensure optimal results.
