Ferodo DS1.11 Brake Compound Details
The DS1.11 has a lower mu than the DS3.12 at all temperatures and can be characterized as a moderate mu pad vs. other endurance racing compounds. They require more pedal force than the DS3.12, and they have a slightly declining torque curve as temperatures rise. As they get hotter and you dive deeper into a turn, you may feel like you need to push a little harder on the brake pedal to elicit the same response (which is a feel many drivers actually prefer). Some drivers feel that the DS1.11 is more controllable on street tires than DS3.12 since ABS cannot be activated as easily. It will last a fairly long time vs. many other pad compounds on the market but does not last quite as long as the DS3.12. They are very gentle on discs at track temperatures when a proper pad transfer layer is maintained. The DS1.11 also has an outstanding max temp and fade resistance, just not quite as high as 3.12. We're not aware of anyone who has faded them, and most people differentiate between the DS1.11 and DS3.12 based on feel.
The Ferodo DS1.11 is a proven endurance racing brake pad compound designed for drivers who need outstanding fade resistance, long pad life, and precise control under repeated high-temperature braking. For track cars and serious HPDE builds, DS1.11 is a trusted Ferodo race brake pad with a strong reputation for consistency.
This DS1.11 features stable braking performance, excellent modulation, and durability in demanding track conditions. Compared with more street-focused compounds, DS1.11 is better suited to aggressive lapping, endurance sessions, and drivers who value a progressive pedal feel.
Exceptional fade resistance for track use
Long wear characteristics in endurance-style driving
Progressive, controllable pedal feel
Excellent choice for HPDE and racing applications
Best for: drivers looking for a track brake pad with durability, modulation, and high-temperature stability for repeated hard use.
Note: DS1.11 is a race compound and is not ideal for customers seeking low noise, low dust, or refined street manners.
Ferodo DS2500 Compound Details
Although we always recommend using a dedicated race pad for the track, the DS2500 is one of the best hybrid street/track pads on the market. It features the moderately high bite and solid fade resistance of a track pad, with the relatively low dust and noise levels of a street pad. When used as a street pad, it can produce some squeal on certain vehicle platforms. If you drive aggressively on the street, do some canyon runs, autocross, and maybe some light track duty on street tires, the DS2500 is tough to beat.
The Ferodo DS2500 is one of the most popular performance brake pad compounds for drivers who want strong braking on the street and dependable performance at the track. If you are looking for a street and track brake pad with excellent cold bite, low noise, and impressive fade resistance, the DS2500 is a proven choice.
The DS2500 delivers confident pedal feel, consistent stopping power, and better high-temperature performance than typical street pads. It is an excellent option for spirited driving, autocross, HPDE, and dual-purpose performance cars.
Strong cold bite for street use
Low noise when properly bedded
Excellent fade resistance for a dual-purpose pad
Great match for performance street tires
Best for: drivers who want a versatile Ferodo brake pad for daily driving, canyon runs, and light to moderate track use without giving up refinement.
Note: DS2500 is a race-derived compound and may produce more dust than an ordinary OEM street pad.
Ferodo DS3000 Brake Compound Details
The predecessor to DS1.11, DS3000 offers high initial bite with excellent feel and release. Popular among rally teams, DS3000 has a relatively low cold temperature threshold while still offering high temp stability for tarmac. DS3000 is very easy on discs at the expense of pad wear.
Ferodo FCP0850 Comparison Chart
Out of all the pad compounds we've ever tested, from all manufacturers, the Ferodo DS3.12 shows the flattest torque curve across the broadest temperature range. That means on every turn, on every track you drive, on every lap, your brake pedal is going to feel almost exactly the same, providing tremendous consistency and repeatability. The DS3.12 has a higher mu (µ) than Ferodo's other compounds, so not as much pedal pressure is required to initiate the desired response. It is also un-fadable, showing no drop in performance at any temperature your brakes will ever see.
Ferodo FCP0850 Coefficient of Friction (Mu) Comparison Chart
In dyno testing, the Ferodo DS3.12 has shown superior wear rates to the other Ferodo compounds, while remaining kind to brake rotors. We believe the Ferodo DS3.12 will become the gold standard by which other race compounds will be judged.

Ferodo DSUNO Brake Compound Details
For our customers who enjoy the performance of the DS1.11, but just want a little more bite, we recommend the DSUNO. It doesn't wear quite as long as the DS1.11, but it does offer a higher overall mu once it reaches track temperatures.

OMP Pro Mec Nomex Pit Gloves
$229.00
OMP Pro Mec Nomex Fire-Resistant Mechanic Gloves
The OMP Pro Mec Nomex Mechanic Gloves are designed to protect motorsport crew members during demanding pit-lane and service operations. Their fire-resistant Nomex construction, reinforced impact zones, and heavy-duty anti-slip palm provide the protection and control required for tire changes, refueling stops, and trackside mechanical work.
Durable reinforcement around the knuckles and between the thumb and forefinger helps protect high-contact areas from impact and abrasion. The bright yellow construction also improves visibility, making the gloves useful for driver signaling and fast-paced pit-lane communication.
Certified to the FIA 8856-2000 standard, the OMP Pro Mec provides professional-grade protection while maintaining the flexibility and dexterity mechanics need when handling tools, wheels, fuel equipment, and vehicle components.
Fire-Resistant Nomex Construction
The OMP Pro Mec is made from woven Nomex material that provides fire and heat resistance for motorsport pit-lane environments. The soft, flexible fabric allows the glove to move naturally with the hand while providing protective coverage around the fingers, palm, wrist, and cuff.
This construction helps protect crew members working around hot brakes, exhaust components, fuel systems, engines, and other heat-producing areas of a race vehicle.
Impact-Resistant Knuckle Protection
Reinforced sections around the knuckles help absorb impact during tire changes, wheel handling, and other mechanical tasks. These protective areas are positioned to guard the parts of the hand most likely to contact tools, wheels, suspension components, and bodywork.
The reinforced construction provides additional protection without making the gloves excessively bulky or difficult to work in.
Reinforced Thumb and Forefinger Area
The area between the thumb and forefinger receives additional reinforcement for improved durability and impact resistance. This high-wear area experiences substantial pressure when gripping wheel guns, handles, fuel cans, and other pit equipment.
The reinforcement helps reduce wear while maintaining the flexibility required for precise tool control.
Heavy-Duty Anti-Slip Palm
The palm features durable silicone and rubber grip material designed to improve traction on tools and equipment. The anti-slip surface provides a secure hold on impact wrenches, wheels, fuel cans, jacks, and other essential pit-lane equipment.
Improved palm grip allows mechanics to maintain control with less hand pressure, helping reduce fatigue during repeated service procedures and long race events.
Flexible Mechanic-Focused Fit
The soft woven Nomex construction provides a close but flexible fit that supports natural hand movement. The glove allows mechanics to grip, lift, turn, and operate tools without excessive material bunching around the fingers or palm.
This balance of protection and dexterity makes the OMP Pro Mec suitable for fast pit stops as well as extended trackside and workshop service work.
High-Visibility Yellow Construction
The bright yellow color improves visibility in crowded pit-lane environments. Crew members can use the gloves for clear hand signaling when guiding drivers into the pit box, coordinating vehicle movement, or communicating with other team members.
The high-visibility design also makes it easier to locate the gloves quickly among tools and equipment during time-sensitive service procedures.
Extended Protective Cuff
An extended cuff provides additional coverage around the wrist and lower forearm. This design helps create dependable overlap with compatible pit-crew apparel while protecting areas that may be exposed during reaching, lifting, or tool operation.
FIA 8856-2000 Approved Protection
The OMP Pro Mec Nomex Mechanic Gloves comply with the FIA 8856-2000 homologation standard. This certification makes them suitable for many professional, club-level, endurance, rally, and road-racing applications requiring approved protective equipment for pit crews.
Teams and crew members should confirm the required certification with their racing organization or sanctioning body before competition.

Ferodo DS2500 Compound Details
Although we always recommend using a dedicated race pad for the track, the DS2500 is one of the best hybrid street/track pads on the market. It features the moderately high bite and solid fade resistance of a track pad, with the relatively low dust and noise levels of a street pad. When used as a street pad, it can produce some squeal on certain vehicle platforms. If you drive aggressively on the street, do some canyon runs, autocross, and maybe some light track duty on street tires, the DS2500 is tough to beat.
The Ferodo DS2500 is one of the most popular performance brake pad compounds for drivers who want strong braking on the street and dependable performance at the track. If you are looking for a street and track brake pad with excellent cold bite, low noise, and impressive fade resistance, the DS2500 is a proven choice.
The DS2500 delivers confident pedal feel, consistent stopping power, and better high-temperature performance than typical street pads. It is an excellent option for spirited driving, autocross, HPDE, and dual-purpose performance cars.
Strong cold bite for street use
Low noise when properly bedded
Excellent fade resistance for a dual-purpose pad
Great match for performance street tires
Best for: drivers who want a versatile Ferodo brake pad for daily driving, canyon runs, and light to moderate track use without giving up refinement.
Note: DS2500 is a race-derived compound and may produce more dust than an ordinary OEM street pad.
Ferodo FCP1324 Comparison Chart
Out of all the pad compounds we've ever tested, from all manufacturers, the Ferodo DS3.12 shows the flattest torque curve across the broadest temperature range. That means on every turn, on every track you drive, on every lap, your brake pedal is going to feel almost exactly the same, providing tremendous consistency and repeatability. The DS3.12 has a higher mu (µ) than Ferodo's other compounds, so not as much pedal pressure is required to initiate the desired response. It is also un-fadable, showing no drop in performance at any temperature your brakes will ever see.
Ferodo FCP1324 Coefficient of Friction (Mu) Comparison Chart
In dyno testing, the Ferodo DS3.12 has shown superior wear rates to the other Ferodo compounds, while remaining kind to brake rotors. We believe the Ferodo DS3.12 will become the gold standard by which other race compounds will be judged.

Ferodo DS1.11 Brake Compound Details
The DS1.11 has a lower mu than the DS3.12 at all temperatures and can be characterized as a moderate mu pad vs. other endurance racing compounds. They require more pedal force than the DS3.12, and they have a slightly declining torque curve as temperatures rise. As they get hotter and you dive deeper into a turn, you may feel like you need to push a little harder on the brake pedal to elicit the same response (which is a feel many drivers actually prefer). Some drivers feel that the DS1.11 is more controllable on street tires than DS3.12 since ABS cannot be activated as easily. It will last a fairly long time vs. many other pad compounds on the market but does not last quite as long as the DS3.12. They are very gentle on discs at track temperatures when a proper pad transfer layer is maintained. The DS1.11 also has an outstanding max temp and fade resistance, just not quite as high as 3.12. We're not aware of anyone who has faded them, and most people differentiate between the DS1.11 and DS3.12 based on feel.
The Ferodo DS1.11 is a proven endurance racing brake pad compound designed for drivers who need outstanding fade resistance, long pad life, and precise control under repeated high-temperature braking. For track cars and serious HPDE builds, DS1.11 is a trusted Ferodo race brake pad with a strong reputation for consistency.
This DS1.11 features stable braking performance, excellent modulation, and durability in demanding track conditions. Compared with more street-focused compounds, DS1.11 is better suited to aggressive lapping, endurance sessions, and drivers who value a progressive pedal feel.
Exceptional fade resistance for track use
Long wear characteristics in endurance-style driving
Progressive, controllable pedal feel
Excellent choice for HPDE and racing applications
Best for: drivers looking for a track brake pad with durability, modulation, and high-temperature stability for repeated hard use.
Note: DS1.11 is a race compound and is not ideal for customers seeking low noise, low dust, or refined street manners.

Ferodo DS3000 Brake Compound Details
The predecessor to DS1.11, DS3000 offers high initial bite with excellent feel and release. Popular among rally teams, DS3000 has a relatively low cold temperature threshold while still offering high temp stability for tarmac. DS3000 is very easy on discs at the expense of pad wear.
