Mintex Racing M1166 Brake Pads 97mm x 54mm MDB2581M1166
High-torque, high-temperature racing material with a reputation for refusing to fade. The endurance workhorse of the M range.
M1166 takes the M1144 chemistry and stiffens it for heat. The numbers tell the story: shear strength rises to 29.66 kN and compressibility at 400°C drops to just 0.55%, so the pad stays firm and the pedal stays consistent when the discs are glowing at the end of a long stint.

It suits cars that generate real brake temperature: saloon and touring-car racing, tarmac rally and quick single seaters. Initial bite is firmer than M1144 without being snatchy, and the friction curve flattens out through the 300-500°C window rather than climbing, which is exactly what you want when the same corner arrives forty times in a race.
Typical applications:
- Track days
- Tarmac rally
- Saloon / sedan racing
- Single seater racing
- Endurance racing
