It has been observed that, for various reasons, braking systems have lost during the last years some balance characteristics they had already reached in the past, reasons such as: speed performance upgrades; spending review trend of the manufacturers; the arrival of synthetic materials. Here lies our ambition of inventing a double function device that could, on one hand, reduce the heat radiation coming from the pads towards clamp and oil, while on the other one, generate a cooling for the pad in order to avoid sustained critical temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eThus, we have made special Hybrid Pads composed of two parts: one produced with special thermal steel, the other consisting in a light-weight alloy with an high thermal-exchange rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eThe project have been carried out after one year of testing and comparisons done right on track before the release of the final version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-subheading\"\u003eThe Project\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eOur heat sinks have been designed using two different metal elements to optimize the thermal insulation of the brake pad by the caliper and the cooling thereof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eThe main body of our heat sink is made of a special thermal steel with a high degree of heat conductivity. The material is first laser cut and then CNC machined in our workshops, the slots have two purposes, the first to reduce the contact surface, the second to release the hot air formed inside the brake piston cavity by reducing the hot chamber effect, and the propagation of heat in the piston and oil. The main body of the steel sink is connected to a light alloy heatsink made of a special aluminum with high thermal conductivity, which has the task of assisting the process of heat dissipation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eOur tests have shown a reduction in the temperature of the brake pad to a maximum of 20 degrees, and a substantial improvement in braking, an incredible stability at braking start, an optimum rollback value of the brake pads resulting in a hot free wheel. In addition, the brake pads have shown to have a longer life of 25% due to a less temperature burdensome usage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eThe project has been developed for more than a year and during this time we have used different motorcycles, and always getting the same result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"page-subheading\"\u003eThe Development\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eThe development of the project lasted one year, we started with the choice of materials and their production process. Various configurations and different materials processing have been tried, we have used data acquisition tools and special heat cameras for the view of heat propagation by examining different points of the brake caliper and brake pad. We spent over 500 hours on the circuit and 20,000 km of road test.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eIn total, the product has been tested on six different motorcycles and under different conditions of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003eSo we have come to these configurations that in our opinion guarantee the exact compromise between efficiency, weight, cost and ease of installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bottom-indent txttermpriv\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FgKuzSxU1uw\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eProduct Application\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eBREMBO M4 + M50 + STILEMA\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n848 EVO 2011-2013\u003cbr\u003e\r\n848 EVO CORSE SE 2012-2013\u003cbr\u003e\r\nDESMOSEDICI 1000 RR 2008-\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1098 - S - TRICOLORE 2007-2009\u003cbr\u003e\r\nHYPERMOTARD 1100 EVO SP 2010-\u003cbr\u003e\r\nHYPERMOTARD 1100 S 2007-2009\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPANIGALE 1100 V4 S 2018-\u003cbr\u003e\r\nSTREETFIGHTER 1098 - S 2009-2013\u003cbr\u003e\r\nSTREETFIGHTER V4 \/ V4S\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1098 R - BAYLISS #21 2008-2009\u003cbr\u003e\r\n1198 - S - R - SP 2009-2011\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPANIGALE 1199 R 2013-2017\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPANIGALE 1199 - S - ABS 2012-2014\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPANIGALE 1199 Superleggera 2014-\u003cbr\u003e\r\nDIAVEL - AMG - CARBON - CROMO - STRADA - FL 2011-2015\u003cbr\u003e\r\nDIAVEL 1260S\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMONSTER 1200 S 2014-\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMONSTER 1200 R 2016-\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMULTISTRADA 1200 S ABS - S Touring - S Pike Peak - S D-air (oem #530 - conv.#525) 2015-2017\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMULTISTRADA 1260 S ABS - S Touring - S Pike Peak - S D-air 2018-\u003cbr\u003e\r\nXDIAVEL 1200 S - 1260 S 2016-\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPANIGALE 1299 - S - ABS - R Final Edition 2015-2018\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPANIGALE 1299 Superleggera 2017-\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/tbody\u003e","brand":"Ducati","offers":[{"title":"RED","offer_id":32255880298607,"sku":"BPR01A","price":172.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SILVER","offer_id":32255880331375,"sku":"BPR01G","price":172.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1259\/9599\/products\/bpr01-brake-plate-radiator.jpg?v=1609293627","url":"https:\/\/www.dennispowersport.com\/products\/ducabike-bpr01-brake-plate-radiator","provider":"DennisPowerSport","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
