I'm getting new brakes soonish and I'm just wondering if anyone's tried the Bendix CT yet?

They're ceramin but only have a max cont operating temp of 320C - 380C. Pretty poor compared to the Ultimates @ 550C, but they weren't designed as a replacement to the Ultimates.

Same here, fit lots of these at work. They are a lot better than the Bendix Advance pads as far as noise and bedding in. You get a good pedal straight away and they seem more effective.

they're just the standard bendix pad desgined for normal everyday use.
peform acceptably if used for this purpose but aren't so flash if you push the pedal hard alot.
