Hawk Performance Metallic Brake Pads - Sprint Car Racing

Hawk Performance Metallic brake pads are purpose-built for the extreme demands of open wheel sprint car racing. Engineered with a sintered metallic friction compound, this product line delivers the reliable, repeatable stopping power that racers depend on when every lap and every braking zone counts.

At the core of Hawk's sprint car pad lineup is a friction formulation designed to maintain a flat coefficient of friction across medium to high operating temperatures — the hallmark of a true race-grade compound. Rather than fading or dropping off as heat builds, these pads deliver predictable brake feel from the opening lap to the checkered flag, and consistently throughout the full life of the pad.

Key Features:

• Sintered metallic friction compound specifically developed for open wheel sprint car racing applications
• Flat friction coefficient at elevated temperatures for consistent, predictable braking performance lap after lap
• Lower wear rates compared to competing metallic compounds, reducing pad change frequency during race events
• Higher torque output for maximum stopping power under demanding race conditions
• Consistent performance throughout pad life — no fade or fall-off as material wears
• Track-tested and proven effective across all forms of sprint car competition
• 100% free of asbestos, lead, chromium, cadmium, and antimony
• Manufactured in ISO-certified facilities to strict quality standards

Hawk Performance is an industry leader in motorsports friction material development, with over 30 years of dedicated research, testing, and refinement in the most demanding racing environments. All compounds undergo rigorous dynamometer testing designed to simulate real-world race conditions, followed by extensive on-vehicle testing before going to market. Hawk is also the official brake product for organizations including NASA, SCCA, and the Porsche Club of America — a testament to the brand's proven performance credentials.

This product line is available in multiple fitments to accommodate a wide range of sprint car brake systems and caliper configurations, making it straightforward to find the right pad for your specific race setup.
