Moisture Is Only Part of the Challenge

Rain and humidity reduce friction. But long-term exposure to moisture, road salt, and environmental contaminants creates a second problem: corrosion.

When corrosion develops on rotor surfaces and non-friction areas:

• Rotor surfaces degrade unevenly
• Pad contact becomes less consistent
• Friction behavior changes over time
• Braking feel becomes less predictable

At the same time, moisture trapped between pad and rotor continues to reduce initial bite.

Drivers experience:

• Softer response in wet conditions
• Inconsistent braking after exposure to rain or road salt
• Gradual decline in braking smoothness over time
• Reduced confidence in daily driving conditions

Traditional brake systems were designed for dry performance. They were never engineered to manage moisture and corrosion together.

HydroAdaptive™ Environmental Braking

Type 03 Brake Pads are built around HydroAdaptive™, a ceramic friction system engineered to stabilize braking in wet and humid environments.

HydroAdaptive™ actively manages moisture at the friction interface, preventing water from disrupting pad-to-rotor contact and maintaining consistent friction output.

What This Delivers:

• Stable bite during rain and wet road conditions
• Consistent pedal feel in humid environments
• Predictable torque from the first stop
• Smooth braking through daily weather changes

Type 03 is engineered for controlled, repeatable braking, not aggressive, inconsistent bite.

Why This Is a System, Not Just Pads

Braking consistency depends on how pad and rotor interact as a complete system.

GC Rotors: Full Protection + Friction Stability

GC Type Rotors are fully coated with GEOMET® and engineered to pair precisely with HydroAdaptive™ formulations.

What this adds to the system:

• Full GEOMET® coating protects against corrosion from water, humidity, and road salt
• HydroAdaptive-matched metallurgy ensures stable friction behavior
• Controlled surface preparation improves pad contact consistency
• Faster bedding and reduced uneven wear
• Long-term braking stability in harsh environments

Where SC rotors support friction behavior, GC rotors extend that performance over time in corrosion-prone conditions.

This is not a collection of parts. It is a braking system engineered for environmental durability.

What's Included

• Type 03 HydroAdaptive™ Brake Pads
• GC Type Fully Coated Rotors (GEOMET®)
• Vehicle-specific hardware kits where applicable
• HydroAdaptive Reserved Brake Grease

HydroAdaptive Reserved Brake Grease

Engineered specifically for HydroAdaptive systems:

• Maintains stability across temperature changes
• Resists washout in rain and humidity
• Preserves lubrication integrity over time

Every component is selected to support consistent braking in real-world environments.

Ideal For

Type 03 + GC Kit is ideal for:

• Rain-heavy regions
• High humidity environments
• Areas with road salt usage
• Coastal climates
• Daily drivers exposed to year-round moisture

Positioning Insight

If your driving conditions include frequent moisture and long-term exposure to corrosive elements, this is the correct system.

Built for Real Environments, Not Ideal Conditions

Most brake systems are designed to perform when new and dry. Real roads are wet, humid, and often corrosive.

HydroAdaptive™ ensures friction stability in the moment. GC Rotors ensure that stability is maintained over time.

With this kit, consistency is more than just a feature. It is a system.
