Race Technologies 2434 Racing Brake Pads for BMW M

Race Technologies 2434 Brake Pad Fitment Guide

The Race Technologies 2434 brake pad is a compact, high-performance pad shape designed for demanding braking applications where precise modulation, consistent friction, and thermal stability are essential. Measuring 73.8 mm wide by 78.5 mm high with a 63 mm friction material depth, the 2434 features a distinctive narrow backing plate and tall friction surface for compatible performance braking systems.

Available from Competition Motorsport in RE10 racing and TS20 street/track compounds, the Race Technologies 2434 allows drivers to choose the friction characteristics best suited to their vehicle, braking system, driving style, and intended use. Whether preparing for an HPDE event, track day, or competitive race weekend, selecting the correct pad shape and compound is essential for predictable braking performance.

Race Technologies 2434 Brake Pad Specifications

• Pad Shape: 2434 / P1205.17
• Overall Width: 73.8 mm
• Overall Height: 78.5 mm
• Friction Material Depth: 63 mm
• Available Compounds: RE10 and TS20
• Intended Use: Performance driving, HPDE, track days, club racing, and motorsport, depending on compound

The 2434 features a distinctive backing plate with two rectangular upper retaining openings, an additional circular locating hole, and an offset upper relief. Its compact width and tall friction surface distinguish it from many conventional performance brake pad shapes.

Always compare the 2434 technical drawing and dimensions with your existing brake pad or caliper specifications before ordering.

RE10 Racing Brake Compound

Race Technologies RE10 is an endurance-focused racing friction material engineered for demanding track and competition environments. Designed to provide consistent braking performance under sustained high temperatures, RE10 emphasizes predictable modulation, thermal stability, and low pad and rotor wear.

RE10 is particularly well suited to advanced HPDE, sprint racing, club racing, and endurance competition where repeatable braking performance is essential. Its friction characteristics help drivers maintain consistent pedal response during extended sessions and repeated heavy braking.

As a competition-focused compound, RE10 is intended primarily for track and racing applications. Increased brake dust and noise may occur during low-temperature street operation.

TS20 Street and Track Brake Compound

Race Technologies TS20 provides a versatile alternative for drivers seeking strong braking performance across a wider range of operating conditions. Developed for performance street driving and track-day applications, TS20 combines responsive initial bite, predictable modulation, and more street-friendly characteristics than a dedicated racing compound.

TS20 is a suitable choice for dual-purpose performance vehicles used for spirited street driving, HPDE events, and occasional track days where braking performance must be balanced with everyday drivability.

RE10 vs. TS20: Which Compound Is Right for You?

Both Race Technologies compounds are designed for performance braking, but their intended operating environments differ.

• RE10: Best suited to dedicated track cars, club racing, sprint racing, and endurance applications requiring sustained high-temperature performance, consistent friction, and race-focused durability.
• TS20: Best suited to performance street cars, HPDE, and dual-purpose street/track vehicles where responsive braking and more street-friendly noise and dust characteristics are priorities.

The ideal compound depends on vehicle weight, tire grip, rotor configuration, brake cooling, operating temperatures, and driving style. Contact Competition Motorsport for assistance selecting the appropriate compound for your application.

Why Choose Race Technologies 2434 Brake Pads?

The 2434 pad shape combines a compact 73.8 mm overall width with a 78.5 mm height and 63 mm friction material depth. This distinctive geometry makes accurate pad identification especially important when replacing existing pads or selecting friction materials for compatible performance calipers.

• Distinctive 2434 backing plate geometry for compatible brake calipers
• 73.8 mm overall width and 78.5 mm overall height
• 63 mm friction material depth
• Choice of RE10 competition or TS20 street/track compounds
• Performance-oriented friction materials for demanding driving applications

Race Technologies 2434 Brake Pad Fitment

The Race Technologies 2434 brake pad is designed for braking systems that require its specific backing plate geometry and friction material dimensions. Proper fitment depends on the caliper design, mounting features, brake system configuration, and required pad thickness.

Before ordering, verify the 73.8 mm overall width, 78.5 mm overall height, 63 mm friction material depth, and retaining-hole locations against your existing brake pads or caliper manufacturer's specifications.

Vehicle make and model alone may not establish compatibility, particularly when aftermarket performance brake systems or optional brake packages are installed.
