08 Compound gained immediate favor in Endurance Sportscar and GT racing due to its performance in applications where smooth initial bite is a must. It has a slight friction rise with temperature, with excellent release and modulation characteristics. Very low abraded disc wear with a fine grey slate like disc finish, similar to 01 Compound. Despite its considerable performance, 08 is one of the longest-wearing of all PFC compounds. It easily matches the wear of other brands, but with much higher bite. If temperatures are below about 950°F, 08 can be replaced with PFC 12 Compound for even longer wear.
11 Compound was developed from the popular 01 Compound for sprint and medium-distance racing. This compound was designed with improved bite, modulation, and release characteristics. The result is ultra-smooth braking with reduced wheel locking at the end of a stop. 11 can be used in a large spectrum of temperature ranges. Pad wear is on par with 01 Compound, with superior disc conditioning. Virtually zero taper wear when raced in a properly designed race caliper. It is ideal for use in medium- or low-grip situations such as hard spec tires or light cars with no downforce.
97 Compound was developed as an endurance compound for IndyCars, but it quickly became a favorite of sportscar endurance racing. It has less initial bite and average torque than 01 Compound, but higher bite and torque than 90 Compound. The very flat torque curve and enhanced release characteristics allow great modulation. It is recommended as a rear pad in applications that tend to lock the rear brakes. 97 can be replaced by either 11 Compound (sprint racing) or 12 Compound (endurance racing).
