Black Diamond brake discs are award-winning brake rotors made to the most exacting standards using computer-aided design and computerised production. The 12 Groove range are designed to give a more instant response and greater friction improving braking.
All Black Diamond discs use their unique compound and extra heat treatment to provide your Audi with awesome braking performance. Match your Black Diamond Discs with the superb Black Diamond Predator Brake Pads and Black Diamond Stainless Steel Hoses for the ultimate in stopping power for your Audi.
Black Diamond Brake Discs - Grooved Version
The grooved version of the Black Diamond brake disc range is designed to increase friction between disc and pad which increases stopping power. The black heat treated coating is designed to prevent corrosion and improve appearance. The Black Diamond Grooved Brake Discs are very popular for fast Audis such as the S3, RS4 and R8.
Black Diamond brake discs are supplied in 3 different styles depending on your driving style and use. The discs vary in appearance and price but all 3 will improve braking response and reduce brake fade. Combined with Black Diamond's own predator fast road pads no other brand offers such big improvements in stopping power.
The grooved version of the Black Diamond brake rotors are available for both front and rear brakes on your Audi.
Black Diamond Brake Discs - Cross-Drilled Version
The cross drilled version of the Black Diamond brake disc range is designed to increase cooling of the disc. The holes drilled in the disc allow more air to flow in and over the disc which in turn helps reduce heat build up which reduces brake fade. The black heat treated coating is designed to prevent corrosion and improve appearance. Black Diamond cross-drilled brake discs are very popular for sport-oriented Audis like the R8 and are suitable for semi track day use.
The cross-drilled version of the Black Diamond brake rotors are available for both front and rear brakes on your Audi.
Black Diamond Brake Rotors - Combination Version
The combination rotors are the most advanced brake disc that Black Diamond produce. The grooves increase friction between disc and pad resulting in a shorter stopping distance whilst the drilled holes improve cooling and reduce brake fade. These are the daddy of all discs and are ideal for heavy road use and track days on powerful cars like the Audi R8, RS4 and RS6.
The combination version of the Black Diamond brake rotors are available for both front and rear brakes on your Audi.
Black Diamond Predator Audi Brake Pads
Black Diamond brake pads for your Audi are an ultra low dust, high friction, high temperature compound with a heat transfer layer next to the backing plate to transfer heat away from the disc and pad enabling operating temperatures of slightly over 520deg with no fade at all.
Black Diamond predator pads complement the black diamond disc range perfectly, or if you wish you can gain extra braking performance by using the black diamond predator pads on their own with standard discs.
Black Diamond Predator Fast Track Brake Pads
The Black Diamond range of Fast Track Brake Pads are the ultimate in high performance pads for your Audi. They are approved for use on both the road and track. With friction levels of 0.3 which are stable up to over 700°C, these pads offer outstanding performance in all conditions with high initial bite and zero fade. These Black Diamond pads are designed to not reduce disc life and produces far less dust than semi-metallic pads.
The FastBed coating on the pad surfaces ensures quick bedding in time with no glazing side effects. FT pads are suitable for all Audi models, especially heavy saloons and those producing in excess of 200 bhp. These pads are compatible with Black Diamond Brake Discs and Predator Pads for use on the rear.
Black Diamond Brake Hoses
Black Diamond hoses are made as close to oe specification as possible and many applications come complete with line locators using high specification hose with stainless steel over braid to hold the strength of the hose.
Using Black Diamond braided brake hoses will give you a superbly firm and controllable brake pedal action. Black diamond stainless steel hoses are also guaranteed forever, subject to conditions.
Audi Owner's View
We have fitted black diamond brake discs and predator pads on numerous project cars, and In 10 years of dealing with Black Diamond we have never had a warranty claim. This fact alone speaks volumes about the brand and quality of materials used.
The combination brake discs are the most popular style of disc available in the Black Diamond range. These combination brake discs are the first choice for many of our customers and we fit them to every show car that we build. We'd recommend them for your Audi too.
