The new original M carbon-ceramic brake is a technology from motor racing. The use of the high-tech materials carbon and ceramic increases the thermal load capacity even in extreme situations, e.g. on the race track. The weight reduction of the brake disc has a positive effect on fuel consumption and the agility of the M vehicle. Thanks to its long service life, it even slows down wear. -The sportiness of the vehicle is underlined by its attractive appearance. Especially with light alloy wheels with an open wheel design. -New type of carbon fiber composite ceramic: This makes the brake discs significantly more wear-resistant and they need to be replaced much less frequently. -Better braking effect under extremely high loads thanks to high and stable coefficient of friction. -60 % lighter than conventional brake discs: The reduced unsprung masses reduce the weight of the chassis and achieve an improvement in the road contact of the wheels. -More precise modulation of braking power and increased agility when cornering thanks to reduced mass moments of inertia. -Even greater resistance to diminishing braking effect due to high thermal load (fading) than with the standard 6-piston fixed calliper brake with internally ventilated and perforated cast brake discs. -High corrosion resistance of the material and thus an extension of the service life of the brake discs. -The BMW M carbon-ceramic brake was designed and tested according to internal requirements. Technical information: -Weight reduction of approx. 19 kilograms -New type of carbon fiber composite ceramic
