Hawk HB542C.600 HPX Autocross Competition Brake Pads

The Hawk HB542C.600 HPX brake pads are specifically engineered for the demanding conditions of autocross competition. Designed to deliver smooth bite, clean modulation, and quick activation, these pads provide predictable braking power in both warm and cold temperatures during competitive runs.

Key Features:

• HPX autocross-specific compound developed over two years of rigorous testing
• Smooth initial bite with excellent modulation and release characteristics
• Quick activation for immediate response during competitive runs
• Consistent performance in cold-to-warm temperature transitions
• 0.600-inch pad thickness for optimal caliper compatibility
• Designed for iron and metal rotors (not compatible with carbon ceramic)

Important: HPX is a competition-only compound not intended for street use. This pad was developed in partnership with SCCA Solo Nationals-winning competitors to deliver a competitive advantage in autocross applications. The HPX compound offers superior performance compared to Hawk's HPS 5.0 and HP+ options when it comes to the unique demands of autocross driving, including rapid deceleration from moderate speeds and precise brake modulation for cone navigation.
