Ferodo’s 4003 was specifically developed for lighter cars (Formula 3, Formula Ford, Formula Opel, Formula Vauxhall, Formula Renault, Formula Campus) and Rally use. 4003 is the most commonly used pad worldwide in F3 championships. The main characteristics of 4003 are:
- High coefficient of friction (0.48) at all speeds and temperatures
- Short bedding-in time
- Excellent initial bite
- Predictability and reliability
- Low drag/good release
4003 can also be used in the rear axle of front-wheel-drive racing cars (off-road, asphalt, track).
