Disclaimer

Track Use Only
ColdForge brake pads are designed exclusively for closed-circuit track use. They are not approved for road use and may perform poorly when cold, generate significant noise, dust, and accelerated disc wear.

Installation Responsibility
Brake components must be installed by a qualified technician. Always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s installation procedures, torque specifications, and safety guidelines when fitting brake pads or related components.

Bedding-In May Be Required
ColdForge pads must be correctly bedded in before full-load use to achieve the correct friction transfer layer and optimal braking performance. Failure to follow the recommended bedding procedure can result in reduced performance, uneven pad deposits, vibration, or premature wear. Follow our brake bedding guide.

Motorsport Operating Temperatures
These pads are engineered for high-temperature motorsport environments and may offer limited performance when cold. Always warm the braking system progressively before demanding braking zones.

User Responsibility
Motorsport carries inherent risk. Tribol cannot be held responsible for damage, injury, or performance issues resulting from incorrect installation, misuse, or failure to follow bedding and operating guidelines.
