Space Grade composites technology paired with race winning friction compounds make the brake pad of the future.

Weight at the wheel is the enemy of control. Steel adds unnecessary mass exactly where drivers feel it most.
Tribol Braking cuts backplate weight by up to 70%, reducing unsprung mass for sharper response, better feedback, and improved braking feel when it matters.

Steel backplates conduct heat straight into the caliper, cooking fluid and killing confidence when you’re pushing hardest.
Tribol Braking’s composite backplates insulate against heat, stabilising pedal feel and braking performance under repeated heavy load – so you can brake later, lap after lap.

80°C
Heat reduction
Thermally insulating by design. Tribol's composite backplates keep braking consistent when it matters most.
70%
Lighter than steel
Reduced mass. Sharper response. Tribol's pads reduce weight by up to 70% – improving response, feel, and confidence under braking.
100%
Rust-free
Corrosion-free, always. Steel corrodes over time, our composite construction is rust-free – keeping your brakes safe.

Why Composite Back Plates Are the Future of Braking
Electric vehicles are heavier, quieter, and cleaner – but their brakes still rely on heavy steel backing plates. We explore why composite brake pads make sense for EV braking systems, and how metal...

Weight: Why Should It Matter to You?
Reducing the weight of your car is one of the most effective ways to improve performance on track. Less mass improves acceleration, braking, cornering speed, handling, and thermal behaviour – all a...
