Only G-LOC™ uses proprietary Carbon, Ceramic, Kevlar, and Metallic compound formulations. We do not load up our compounds with carbon and iron like most of our competitors like to do, which is extremely harsh on your discs/rotors. G-LOC™ compound formulations are some of the most disc/rotor friendly compounds offered in the world. Each G-LOC™ compound is the result of an extensive and rigorous R&D process that gives our customers peace of mind knowing that they can rely on the consistency and high performance nature of every one of our compounds.
All G-LOC™ compounds are created in a controlled environment where everything from air temp, humidity, water temp, and weight (of each ingredient used) have exact specifications that must be met when a compound batch is created. This process is checked no less than 3 times up to 5 times during this process by multiple skilled personnel. The result is a superior and consistent product for the end user.
Street Compounds:
GS-1: The G-LOC™ GS-1 is a high performance street compound. GS-1 produces very little dust and very little noise, while maintaining excellent initial bite and torque for street use. GS-1 has been unmatched in the industry for disc/rotor friendliness as well as its longevity.
Street/Autocross:
R6: The R6 has been specifically engineered for Autocross applications. An ultra high cold torque compound delivering consistent performance from dead cold (0°F) up to 1000°F + (0°C to 537°C+). The advanced compound matrix provides an excellent initial bite, high coefficient of friction at lower temperatures along with very progressive brake modulation and release characteristics. The R6™ compound is widely used for street use as well, but this compound will more than likely make noise on the street.
Track Duty/Competition:
R8: A high torque brake compound with a wide operating temperature range of 74°F-1250°F+ (23°C to 676°C+). G-LOC™ R8 is the first of our extensive lineup of racing compounds. Good initial bite along with excellent modulation and release characteristics. Extremely high fade resistance and very rotor friendly.
R10: The R10 has a much stronger initial bite and higher coefficient of friction than the R8. The R10 compound still maintains our smooth release, excellent modulation and rotor friendliness that have been engineered into all previous G-LOC™ compounds. The R10 compound leads the industry in disc/rotor friendliness.
R12: Raising the bar even higher is the R12 compound with an excellent initial bite, high and consistent torque, and outstanding fade resistance over and above the R10.
Track Race/Endurance:
R14: The R14 compound was engineered for endurance racing with lighter weight, lower horsepower cars in mind. R14 has solid initial bite, a little less modulation than the R10 or R12.
R16: The R16 is an extremely aggressive initial bite, linear torque curve and excellent fade resistance compound from our lineup of R-Series compounds. The R16 is a natural progression of the highly successful R-Series line of compounds from G-LOC™.
