Carbon ceramic brakes are used as luxury items in refitting brakes, especially carbon ceramic brake discs are increasingly used. Because of its light weight and good overall braking effectiveness, it is often used in F1 races and most luxury supercars, but it is rarely used by a large number of conversion players because of its high price. However, as the national consumption level continues to escalate, carbon ceramic brakes are constantly known and used by modified gamers.
Brembo is a pioneer in carbon ceramic brake applications. Brembo produced carbon-fiber brake discs for F1 racing cars in 1984. This new material was only used in aircrafts until the mid-1980s because it significantly improved performance and lighter weight. Slowly evolved into the use of private high-end models, until now has also been applied to the use of ordinary brand models. Before we understand the tuning of carbon ceramics, we first briefly understand the characteristics of ceramic brakes.
Carbon ceramic brake system, the core component is the brake disc, ceramic disc material is not the previous cast iron or alloy steel material, but at 1700 degrees high temperature carbon fiber and silicon carbide synthesis reinforced composite ceramics. Ceramic discs weigh less than half as much as ordinary cast iron discs. For example, the ceramic brake SLR MCLAREN has a front brake disc diameter of 370mm but weighs only 6.4 kilograms. The CL-CLASS with a normal brake disc has a front plate diameter of 360mm but a weight of up to 15.4 kilograms. Obviously, ceramic discs have reduced the overall weight of the brakes considerably.
The question is, what's the role of brake quality reduction? According to the ceramic brakes of most supercars currently on the market, and the results of research on actual application of various types of events, lighter brake discs mean lower weight of suspension. This makes the suspension system's response faster, which can improve the overall control of the vehicle.
In addition, ordinary brake discs are prone to thermal degradation due to high heat during full braking, while ceramic brake discs can effectively and stably resist thermal degradation, and their heat resistance is many times higher than ordinary brake discs.
At the same time, ceramic discs can generate maximum braking force immediately in the initial stage of braking, so even without the need for brakes to increase the system, the overall braking is faster and the distance is shorter than the conventional braking system, in order to resist high heat, in the brake piston and Between the brake pad ceramic insulation, ceramic brake discs have extraordinary durability, if the normal use is a lifetime replacement-free, and ordinary cast iron brake discs are generally replaced in a few years.
After careful calculation, Brembo carbon ceramics has accumulated nearly 40 years of technology. His demand for brake quality is his usual style. Based on Brembo's experience and technical exchanges with OEM calipers for many large-scale automotive brands, we have also summarized many classic retrofitting experiences in the evolution of carbon ceramic brakes. Brembo ceramic discs can be used not only with Brembo calipers but also with other originals. Factory calipers or replacement calipers upgrade the brakes. In this way, many collocation upgrade methods can be derived:
Gameplay 1: BMW can directly upgrade ceramic discs, such as M5 calipers with ceramic discs to upgrade BMW M5 or other BMW models
Gameplay II: Mercedes-Benz can upgrade ceramic discs, such as the Mercedes-Benz A45/E/GLE, etc., can be upgraded before the first six after four with Brembo CCM ceramic dishes, matching the original caliper or change the appearance of the front-wheel ceramic dishes
玩法三:路虎大六活塞卡钳(Brembo代工),搭配陶瓷碟升级路虎揽胜运动版或者行政版等
Play four: Audi original calipers with ceramic dishes, such as the Audi RS7 front six-piston six-piston 420x32mm disc rear 370x30mm dish, the first four after the first, but also suitable for S6/S7/S8/RS6, etc.
玩法五:Brembo卡钳改色,升级奥迪宝马奔驰等车型
