RAYBESTOS® PROFESSIONAL RACING BRAKE PADS
In 1957, Raybestos started its long racing tradition by partnering with drivers in the Indy 500 and sponsoring the Safety in Speed award. Over the years, many drivers have taken the checkered flag using Raybestos brakes, relying on the quality and innovation of Raybestos for top-of-the-line, first-lap-to-last-lap performance.
With this in mind, Raybestos now offers a specific Professional Racing brake pad program. This program has a strong selection of popular stocking part numbers featuring a variety of compounds, pad shapes and thicknesses.
There is also a large number of custom pads that are available through the Build to Order part of the program. You select which pad shape, formulation and thickness you need, and we will formulate and press it right here in North America.

Mechanical Retention System
Our Mechanical Retention System securely attaches friction material to the backing plate for greatly improved shear strength and reduces the possibility of puck end-lift.
High-quality steel hooks mechanically attach the friction to the steel plate. This reduces the potential of rust jacking for improved safety.
