    The difference is in the compound:

    R=DS3000

    Setting a new standard, Ferodo’s DS3000 material has a very high and consistent coefficient of friction (0.62) at any temperature or speed. These characteristics provide superior predictability throughout the braking zone. Requires less pedal pressure avoiding over-braking and heat generation for extended rotor life. Very high initial bite and less “off-brake to pedal response”, thus decreased lap times.


    L= DS3000 Plus

    DS3000 Plus was developed by Ferodo for extreme braking conditions. An exceptionally high coefficient of friction (0.72) is achieved while maintaining the same flat µ as DS3000. Pad life is increased by 15 to 20% in most applications. Plus material has an extremely high initial bite yet is consistent in providing the exceptional properties of DS3000.
