Hinz Motorsport, a recognized name in high-performance automotive components, has announced the launch of its newly engineered Hinz Motorsport Carbon Ceramic Brake System, Hinz Carbon. The braking solution was developed to deliver strong performance while addressing supply and pricing challenges present in the current market, including inventory shortages, rising costs, and tariffs affecting traditional carbon ceramic brake suppliers.
Central to the design is a unique integrated friction layer that accommodates more aggressive brake pad compounds while meaningfully extending disc life—a feature that 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.
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 not only performs at a very high level but also gives customers more flexibility, durability, and long-term value. Key performance advantages include improved cold bite for enhanced braking performance in lower temperatures, a higher friction coefficient for stronger, more responsive stopping power, and an easier bed-in process that delivers optimal performance faster after installation. Additionally, expanded pad compatibility allows drivers to tailor performance to their needs, while increased durability and longevity reduce long-term replacement costs. The system also offers low dust and noise, preserving both aesthetics and driving comfort, and weight savings that improve overall vehicle dynamics and handling.
The Hinz Motorsport Carbon Ceramic Brake 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—providing a practical and cost-conscious option without sacrificing braking capability. Hinz Motorsport Carbon Ceramic Brake Systems are now available for order. While some kits remain in production, orders can be placed immediately, with lead times of approximately 14 weeks for non-stock configurations. The company is actively expanding inventory to meet demand. For more information, visit hinzmotorsport.com.
