The new era of braking confidence and consistency is here with Absolute Black GRAPHENpads. As used by Tadej Pogacar and other riders of UAE Team Emirates, Ceramic GRAPHENpads® are a completely new benchmark for the braking pad industry thanks to a unique approach to the design of backplate cooling fins, bespoke backplate coating with graphene, as well as a completely new friction compound, which uses specially modified graphene instead of toxic copper.
These are the first pads on the market containing specially modified graphene in their friction compound, which greatly improves braking performance, durability and heat transfer to the backplate.
Thanks to the backplates being entirely covered in graphene heat dissipating coating, it was possible to achieve much greater heat transfer from the friction material to the cooling fins and at the same time, increase radiation of heat (IR spectrum) by over 20% (which is very significant).
These are also the first pads on the market with patented, angled radiator fins for superior airflow and cooling. Angle cutting provides three major benefits. 1) increased overall surface of the radiator by 40% vs standard cutting methods. 2) significantly greater airflow compared to traditional radiators that increases convective heat dissipation 3) most importantly, 45° angle cutting makes all the surfaces radiate the heat away from the brake pad. Heat radiation (IR spectrum) is the highest in perpendicular direction to the surface so in a standard radiator, every fin is radiating its heat at a neighboring fin, keeping more heat in the element. These pads radiate all the heat away from the back plate.
