Strange Engineering stocks three brake pad compounds with soft, medium, and hard metallic compositions. Soft pads are used in all front brake kits and are one of three options in rear kits. They have excellent starting line holding capabilities with decent resistance to brake fade. In rear applications, they are best suited in vehicles traveling less than 150 mph. and for most vehicles with 4-piston calipers on all four corners. Medium pads are for rear applications and offer a much greater resistance to brake fade. They do noticeably sacrifice on cold holding capabilities, compared to both soft and hard pads; however, unlike hard pads, pad material transfer to the rotor is minimal and is equally as effective against brake fade at high speeds. Hard pads have an equally high fade resistance as the medium pad, but have a better cold holding ability. They do have a tendency to leave pad material deposits on the rotor surface, which will eventually need to be removed when pads are replaced. Strange Engineering offers brake pads for single piston, two piston, and four piston calipers for its line of drag race brake kits. Brake pads are also available for some JFZ, Wilwood, Air Heart, and Kelsey Hayes brake calipers..
