Hinz Motorsport, a manufacturer of high-performance automotive components, has announced the launch of its Hinz Motorsport Carbon Ceramic Brake System, Hinz Carbon. The system was developed in response to inventory shortages, rising costs, and tariffs affecting traditional carbon ceramic brake suppliers. By pursuing a high-quality alternative that balances performance with long-term value, Hinz Motorsport aims to provide a solution that combines advanced materials, controlled manufacturing processes, and design improvements.
Central to the design is a unique integrated friction layer that accommodates more aggressive brake pad compounds while extending disc life. This feature differentiates the system within the performance braking segment. The system is produced using a slower, precision-controlled manufacturing process that minimizes impurities and promotes more uniform silicon infiltration, resulting in a higher-grade silicon carbide structure. This approach contributes to greater consistency, strength, and reliability under demanding conditions.
Key performance advantages include improved cold bite for enhanced braking performance in lower temperatures, a higher friction coefficient for stronger stopping power, and an easier bed-in process that delivers optimal performance faster after installation. The system also offers expanded pad compatibility, allowing drivers to tailor performance to their needs, increased durability and longevity to reduce long-term replacement costs, low dust and noise, and weight savings that improve overall vehicle dynamics.
According to Rick Hinz, Owner of Hinz Motorsport, the goal was to solve a real problem in the market while raising the standard of performance. The system has completed extensive third-party testing through PFC, an independent brake manufacturer, with after-market and OEM-level evaluations confirming its performance, durability, and positioning relative to established products in the segment. Built for performance street, track, and race applications, the system is compatible with high-end platforms including Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren, Audi, Lamborghini, BMW, and other performance-focused vehicles.
The system suits enthusiasts and owners looking to preserve factory carbon ceramic setups for resale, manage brake dust and noise, or run a single pad configuration across both street and track use. It provides a practical and cost-conscious option without sacrificing braking capability. Hinz Motorsport Carbon Ceramic Brake Systems are now available for order, with lead times of approximately 14 weeks for non-stock configurations.
