R90 APPROVAL FOR EU ROAD USE
All parts in the catalogue for European road use are
R90 approved where required by law.(Models in production
from 1999 onwards).
The R90 number is marked on pads and packaging.
SCORCHING
This operation is performed on all of the DS PF range.
Scorching consists of “burning” the surface of the pad.
This significantly reduces the bedding-in time when
pads are fitted onto the vehicle.
THERMAL UNDER-LAYER
sApplied to the entire DS PF range
sThin layer of specific mix pressed between the
backplate and the friction material
sEnsures perfect pad/plate bind
sWorks as thermal barrier preventing heat transfer
through the caliper to the brake fluid
LIMITED DISC WEAR
Many high performance materials are too aggressive
and can cause excessive disc wear. DS PF is formulated
to give minimal disc wear for a high performance
product.

mance both hot and cold. Excellent wet recovery pro-
perties, great resistance to fade and consistent pedal
feel complete all the requirements for a safe, reliable
