Improvement in fading resistance - Certain use conditions - for instance, driving down a mountain pass - cause the disc temperature to rise above 800°C, accompanied by combustion of the phenolic resins in the friction material. This determines a dangerous loss of braking efficiency due to gases forming between the pads and disc braking surfaces. The special groove pattern on Brembo MAX discs rapidly expels these gases and optimum braking conditions are quickly restored.

MICRO-SHAVE EFFECT
Thanks to its exclusive groove pattern, Brembo MAX ensures that friction material is constantly renewed. And so there is no "glazing" of pad surfaces that can cause a particularly dangerous loss of braking efficiency.
