HPS 5. 0 is a Ferro Carbon compound that provides advanced braking characteristics to enhance the driving experience. This compound combines the safety and quality of aerospace design with the braking technology of motorsports. The results are shorter stopping distances, improved performance under heavy braking conditions, and street car friendly characteristics. Expert Opinion The Hawk HPS 5. 0 is a good choice if you are looking to increase your street performance to the maximum level possible without suffering the adverse side effects of noise and large amounts of brake dust commonly associated with higher performance pads. The HPS 5. 0 will provide increased brake torque and operating temperature when compared to the Hawk HPS compound. The HPS 5. 0 compound can withstand light track use as long as you are aware of the signs of over heating and allow proper cool off time when the pads approach their upper temperature. The Hawk HPS 5. 0 compound is not a race compound and it can not withstand prolonged race sessions at high temperatures. The HPS 5. 0 Compound will be cleaner than most OEM Pads, but produce more brake dust than the Hawk Ceramic and Hawk HPS.

Flush system with fresh brake fluid. Check all hydraulic parts for excess wear and tear. Check disc for proper thickness, parallelism, and lateral run out. Check disc for scoring or grooves over . 012"" depth. If either applies, resurfacing or replacement is required. If disc does not need resurfacing then contamination from the previous brake pads must be removed. Sand discs with Garnet sandpaper using moderate pressure. Use soap and water to clean off disc surface after sanding and machining. Discs should be free and clear of oil, grease, and brake fluid Inspect calipers for freedom of movement. Lubricate where necessary Hawk Brake Pad Bedding Procedure Street Compounds Make 6 10 slow downs from approximately 30 35 mph to 5 mph. applying moderate pressure. Do not come to a complete stop.
