The Hawk HPS 5.0 Front Brake Pads (HB464B.764) are engineered to deliver superior stopping power for a variety of European touring sedans and performance vehicles. Utilizing a Ferro-Carbon compound, these pads combine the safety of aerospace design with the performance of motorsports technology. The HPS 5.0 compound is designed for street use, offering aggressive torque and high deceleration rates while maintaining smooth, predictable control and consistent brake release for a comfortable pedal feel. Key benefits include aggressive torque, great rotor and pad wear life, and optimal operating temperatures between 100-750°F (100-550°F optimal).
