From bench testing to championship podiums. Every Barbaro Race Series compound earns its credentials through real competition, not just laboratory simulations.

CEC 2025 CHAMPIONSHIP

Hongqi H6 | FECCR-FR7-9665 Caliper

At the 2025 CEC Championship on the Tianfu International Circuit, a Hongqi H6 fitted with Barbaro RS-635 pads delivered a dominant endurance performance. Running a full 200-minute race stint on a single set, the RS-635 outlasted premium European competitors while showing less pad wear and costing a fraction of the price.

CERTIFIED PERFORMANCE

All Race Series compounds are validated against GB5763-2018 national standards and SAE J2522 testing protocols.

GB5763-2018 National Standard

ModelDesignated FrictionFriction GradeSAE Mean FrictionSAE RangeTemp Range
RS-6200.482GG0.450.45–0.8550–800°C
RS-6350.481GG0.470.45–0.9050–800°C

SAE J2522 (FMVSS 135)

Both RS-620 and RS-635 are tested under the SAE J2522 dynamometer protocol, the global standard for friction material evaluation. This procedure subjects compounds to repeated high-energy braking cycles across the full 50–800°C temperature spectrum, measuring friction stability, fade resistance, and recovery characteristics under controlled laboratory conditions.
