GSL RallySport and Brakes Direct stocks the complete range of Queensland Friction Material (QFM) disc brake pads, from OEM and standard replacement, right through to the HPX and A1RM street, performance and track brake pads!


QFM Super X Brake Pads

Super X is the ideal disc brake pad to handle a wide range of driving conditions and is recommended for most passenger vehicles. Braking is made easy with great pedal feel even when the brakes are cold.

Other features of Super X that many drivers prefer is long wear life, low dust, low noise and that they are kind on the disc rotors resulting in low rotor wear. Temperature Range 0-470 degrees Celsius.





N Brake ECR Brake Pads

N Brake ECR is a general purpose semi-metallic disc brake pad that is suitable for a wide range of vehicle applications and driving conditions. ECR has low dust, long life and extended disc rotor wear.

Manufactured in Thailand, N Brake meets the extremely high quality performance measure of being, ISO9001:2008 and ISO TS16949:2009 certified. This ensures consistency in quality and performance.

QFM is proud to be the exclusive distributor of N Brake in Australia. Temperature Range 0-400 degrees Celsius.




QFM Taxi 69 Brake Pads

Taxi 69 is designed especially to meet the demands of taxi operations. When taxis are on the go they generate constant high temperature with very little chance to cool down. These conditions can often result in rapid wear of the brake pad and in some cases, loss of braking efficiency.

Taxi 69 can handle the constant high temperature conditions yet still provide responsive braking and pedal feel. Taxi operators enjoy the long life and low disc rotor wear and have made Taxi 69 one of the leading brands used by the industry. Temperature range 0-480 degrees Celsius.





QFM 4WD Brake Pads

4WD vehicles are often a lot heavier than the normal passenger vehicle, resulting in the demand on the brake pads being greater. QFM 4WD is able to handle the heat generated by the extra weight and still provide excellent pedal feel and responsive braking.

Standard brake pads in many 4WD applications will not measure up to the extra heat which can result in loss of braking efficiency. 4WD is not a dusty pad and is kind to the disc rotors.

It is the preferred brand fitted and recommended by many Brake Repair Specialists for 4WD vehicles. Temperature range 0-540 degrees Celsius.





QFM HPX Brake Pads

HPX is a heavy duty brake pad that is recommended for performance, passenger and trade vehicles. These vehicles can often generate high temperatures yet they still require a brake pad to handle normal, everyday conditions.

Excellent pedal feel combined with great stopping power hot or cold makes HPX the ideal brake pad for these vehicles. Other features of HPX that motorists enjoy are low dust, low disc rotor wear and quiet operation of the pads. Temperature range 0-550 degrees Celsius.




QFM A1RM Brake Pads

A1RM is a high performance street pad that is also suitable for light track and rally work. This pad is designed to meet the temperatures generated by heavy and prolonged braking applications. A1RM has very good cold effectiveness and pedal feel.

Due to the performance and frictional attributes of A1RM, some vehicles experience higher dust and wear rates than standard disc pads. This is the ideal pad for the enthusiast who wants to combine performance braking at the track with normal braking demands without having to change pads. Temperature range 0-780 degrees Celsius.

Hello,

Has anything changed with the composition of the A1RM pads? I've had to pull them out today as they are unbearable on the street in terms of squeal.

They have been in for about 500K and bedded in as per procedure. Since then they have suffered quite a few hard stops, heat cycles etc and the squeal will just not go away.

I have run them prior to this current set and they have been fine.

When they are cold (first few stops, no noise at all), when they are warm, they squeal to the point where you have to put the windows up when braking they are that bad. It's hard to test on the street, but perhaps you need them at 600c+ constantly to keep them quiet?

The squeal isn't just the last few metres before coming to a stop either, it's braking moderately from 80kph+ down to a complete stop. The Mrs can hear me coming home 200m down the road.

These aren't a full race/track pad so not sure why I'm was having this problem with them this time around.

This is with Brembo's and DBA T3 rotors.

Maybe i just got a bad batch.

Anyway, just some feedback.

Hi Rich,

Yeh mate that is strange. What i would try is to take them out and give them a good scruff up on some concrete and re-installing them and bedding them in again. If you are still having problems after this, drop me a PM and we can try a couple of other fixes.

Regards Matt

All good. Pulled them out and put something else in, all quiet and smooth now.

We had a look at the face of the pad and they are very metallic, looks like more of a race pad than a performance street pad.

Interestingly there was another customer there who used the same pads and pulled them out for the same reason.

Thanks for your input though, appreciate it.

I can send you some photos of the pad if your interested.
