Performance Braking makes a variety of Brake Pad compounds. If you have ever wondered
whether a pad compound makes a difference, or if there is a compound that matches
the type of riding you do, this is the place to find out. G1054 
The
1054 compound is the work horse of our brake pad family. It offers progressive
feel and feedback and is GG rated which makes it a great street brake pad. This
compound is available in front and rear calipers. Use this compound if you commute
to work, ride light trails or woods or "just need some brake pads".
Applications range from street, ATV, dirt bike and cruisers. This compound is
so versatile, many Karts use it as a race compound! G1370 
This
compound is the G1375 compound on a diet. It has all the great features of the
G1375 compound with the exception of the ceramic coated backing plate. Looking
for that perfect brake pad to do those canyon runs? This is it! Very easy on the
discs and great heat recovery. This compound is available for most Supersport
and Superbike from calipers
(600cc - 1000cc) G1375 
Our
1375 compound is the result of many long days at the race track and on the brake
dyno. Based on Advanced Ceramics, this compound is meant for the track. It offers
very fast heat recovery for more consistent braking which in turn, gives the rider
more "feel". This is the pad of choice for most racers at the top of
club levels and AMA contenders. These pads are very easy on rotors since they
do not have the same levels of metallic’s in them like many OEM and aftermarket
brands. The 1375 compound also features a ceramic coated back plate which helps
to dissipate heat away from the brake pad and reduces the amount of heat transferred
into the caliper pistons. This gives you a cooler running system that will be
able to withstand more heating cycles and deliver consistent braking. Available
for front calipers Supersport and Superbike applications (600cc - 1000cc) G1371  | Our

Mladin, Ben Spies, Tommy Hayden, Ruben Xaus, Doug Chandler.... Recognize these
names? Know what they all have in common? Galfer G1003 Brake pads. Introduced
to the general rider 2 years ago, this compound remained an exclusive item for
our top race teams. Now, you can have the same compound that wins championships
and helps to make these riders legends. The G1003 compound features a laser cut
backing plate for EXACT fitment and limited stress to the material. This differs
from anyone else because most backing plates are stamped. Laser cutting allows
for higher consistency which makes the difference. Our backing plates are then
heat treated and double disc ground just like our rotors, making them perfectly
flat. This helps by almost eliminating plate warpage and allows the pad compound
to remain in better contact with the disc. This proven compound can reach friction
levels as high as .72u!!! Very progressive and work better the hotter they get.
Available for most modern OEM 600/750/1000 machines and Brembo Calipers. Not recommended
for street use or for a bike under 600cc.
"...more
bite and consistency than anything I've tried." - 3-time AMA Superbike Champion,
Doug Chandler
"...
I must say that this is the first time in five years we have used any braking
product...better than the PFC and Brembo. On another note, from the confidence
gained at this test, I will now be stocking your products in our retail showroom..."
