Hawk HB879B.705 HPS 5.0 High Performance Street Brake Pad Set

Hawk HB879B.705 is part of the HPS 5.0 High Performance Street brake pad lineup — a premium Ferro-Carbon compound engineered for enthusiasts who demand more than stock braking performance. Designed to combine the safety standards of aerospace engineering with the friction technology of motorsports, these pads deliver shorter stopping distances and superior fade resistance for street-driven performance vehicles.

Key Features:

• Ferro-Carbon Compound: Advanced friction material that blends aerospace-grade safety with motorsport braking technology
• Improved Stopping Power: Delivers greater braking torque and deceleration rates compared to standard OEM pads and the standard HPS compound
• Fade Resistance: Engineered for resistance to brake fade under heavy or repeated braking conditions
• Wide Operating Temperature Range: 100°F–750°F operating range, with an optimal performance window of 100°F–550°F
• Smooth, Predictable Feel: Consistent brake release characteristics deliver a smooth, controlled braking feel with improved pedal response
• Low Dust & Low Noise: Formulated to produce minimal dust and operate virtually noise-free during normal street driving
• Rotor Friendly: Designed to extend both pad and rotor service life compared to more aggressive compounds
• Iron/Metal Rotor Compatible: Not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors — designed specifically for use with iron and metal rotors

The Hawk HPS 5.0 pads are ideal for high-horsepower street cars, American muscle vehicles, performance SUVs, trucks, and European touring sedans where a meaningful upgrade in braking capability is desired without sacrificing daily drivability.
