C-Tech Brake PadsMintex Motorsport

The Mintex brand is the most famous when it comes to motorsport. Through intense research and development, Mintex materials cater not only for Original Equipment and Aftermarket needs but at the other extreme for competition purposes. It is from motorsport that the latest family of Mintex materials have been developed.

Known as C-Tech, these materials cover a whole spectrum of vehicles from a typical small hot hatchback for normal day to day use through to a fully race prepared 700 bhp racing machine.

M1144 is the material for fast road use as well as light competition such as karting, hill climb and single seater racing cars. One of the main characteristics of this material is the ability to work from cold, which gives the user the confidence of a standard material on the first application of the brakes. The benefit of M1144 is experienced as the temperature within the brakes starts to increase. M1144 will remain stable and consistent through to 450oC where a standard material at this temperature will most certainly start to ‘fade’. The ‘bedding in’ procedure for M1144 is the same as any standard material i.e. steady braking for the first 50 miles, avoiding emergency stops. All M1144 pads are supplied with fully branded C-Tech anti noise shims and a C-Tech sticker. M1144 Friction/Wear Factor

M1155 is designed for competition use but is also suitable for use on road going powerful 4 wheel drive applications such as Imprezas and EVO's. M1155 has a similar friction level to M1144 but remains consistent to a maximum operating temperature of 550-600oC. Like M1144 there are no special bedding in procedures for M1155.

M1166 is again purely competition use only and is suitable for rally and saloon/sports car endurance racing. The friction level is higher than that of M1155 but remains consistent to temperatures of 700oC. Again no special bedding in procedure is required. M1166 Friction/Wear Factor
