Product Description

The Ferodo DS3.12 Front Brake Pads are competition-focused front brake pads developed from top-level GT racing research. Designed for heavier, more powerful race cars and high-performance BMW track builds, the DS3.12 compound delivers extremely high friction, excellent durability and consistent braking under extreme temperatures.

As Ferodo’s highest friction compound, DS3.12 is ideal for cars running wide slicks, aggressive aero, ABS and high brake loads. The compound is designed with a flat torque curve, helping provide predictable braking response and consistent pedal feel across demanding track sessions.

Capable of fade-free braking up to 850°C, the DS3.12 compound maintains performance lap after lap while offering the longest pad life among Ferodo compounds. Its initial braking torque is also designed to complement ABS systems, giving drivers confidence under heavy braking.

Please note: Ferodo DS3.12 brake pads are designed for competition and off-road use only and are not approved for public road use. Clubsport Garage is not liable for any road use of these pads.
