Probite PRO-550 Performance Brake Pads
Probite Performance PRO-550 Brake Pads
There is always a demand for pads suitable for ‘fast road and track day use’ that remain road-legal, and Probite’s new PRO-550 now meets that demand. Engineered with cutting-edge materials and advanced technology, our pads redefine braking performance.
Imagine a pad that not only increases friction but also maintains stable performance across a broad temperature range. With the PRO-550, you can say goodbye to inconsistent pedal feel and brake fade. Our pads boast an average coefficient of friction of 0.45μ, setting a new standard in braking excellence. They are R90-approved for road use, making them an excellent choice for high-performance road driving and capable of handling track day demands.
Experience lower dust levels and extended disc life, thanks to our innovative design that’s kinder to your vehicle’s components. What truly sets us apart is our exceptional heat management. While most pads struggle under extreme temperatures, the PRO550 thrives. Our rigorous testing shows a coefficient of friction of 38.2μ at 180°C, reaching an impressive 0.518μ at 550°C. Even under the intense conditions of the track, the PRO-550 maintains peak performance with consistent friction throughout the temperature range, delivering a more predictable pedal feel and superior fade resistance at higher temperatures.
Key Features:
- R90 Approved for Fast Road and track day use.
- Market-leading friction stability, even at high temperatures
- Low noise characteristics
- Excellent cold performance and bite
- Average coefficient of friction: 0.45μ
- Capable of withstanding temperatures up to 550°C

We offer a comprehensive warranty on all Probite products.
Certain products, such as safety or chemical items, may have conditions that apply uniquely to them and therefore not all conditions can be deemed to apply universally to every product we sell. For clarification on any warranty issue, please contact us.
All customers are requested to activate their warranty following receipt of their purchase by providing their order number, current vehicle registration number and mileage. This information will then be linked to your purchase and used to validate any future claims.
Our warranty covers the replacement of a defective or faulty product with a similar product or refund of purchase value only, excluding all labour and ancillary charges such as vehicle towing, fitting, inconvenience, purchasing of other manufacturers' products and all other tertiary or additional elements that were not wholly part of the originally dispatched and purchased order.
The Probite warranty is valid for a period of twelve months from the date of purchase or up to a usage limit of 10,000 miles, whichever is the sooner, of typical and legal road use as expected for your type of vehicle and the purchased part.
All aspects of this warranty are considered invalid if the product is used for racing, rallying, drifting, track day experience driving, or any other form of competition or illegal activity. We do not offer a product warranty for items used under any conditions other than regular and legal road driving on paved and officially recognised highways in the UK.
Our warranty is not offered on any products found to be incorrectly installed, subject to abuse or misuse, modified in any way or partnered with any unadvised or incorrect components and ancillary products.
In the event of any warranty claim, the customer accepts responsibility for returning the products to us at their own cost. Goods that go missing in transit remain the responsibility of the customer until Probite confirms receipt. We, therefore, advise that an insured and signed-for delivery service is used.
Under a warranty claim, the customer agrees to contact us before returning any products. This contact must be in writing via email, outlining the original order number, customer details, product details and the nature of the fault. The customer must quote their invoice number or warranty claim ID on all subsequent correspondence.
Once we have received your initial information we will supply a warranty or returns ID and confirm the full procedure specific to your claim and confirmation that you can now send the items back to us for review.
When we receive the items, we will confirm receipt if requested and will then complete a thorough inspection which will take between two and four weeks. All warranty claims are individually tested and verified and additional proof or information on the nature of the fault must be provided upon request, as per the terms of the applicable and active warranty.
After confirmation of your claim, we will either refund your payment, or arrange for a replacement item to be shipped to you. If replacement parts are required urgently a new payment transaction must be taken before we can send the new parts. Once the original faulty goods are back and have been inspected and have proven to be faulty a refund will be made via the original payment method.

Overseas Customs and Duty Charges
For all customers outside of the UK, the prices on this website will have 20% UK VAT Tax removed at the point of checkout (once you've entered your billing and shipping addresses). However you will likely have to pay some form of Duties / VAT prior to delivery of your goods. You are responsible for paying those charges. Failure to do so will result in the goods being returned to us. As the shipper, we will be charged again by the carrier to return the goods. This amount will be deducted from any refund you may be due.
If you are unsure of the customs and duty charges, we recommend you should contact your local authorities ahead of placing your order.
Stock Availability
We do our best to ensure our stock data is accurate on our website. If we're ordering parts to fulfil your order from other manufacturers or suppliers, there can be delays in them despatching goods which may affect the overall delivery time. We will endeavour to do our best to keep you informed if things don't go to plan. We estimate the likely despatch times when you're looking at each part number. If you require parts urgently, please call us on +44 (0)1823 690281 before ordering to confirm availability.
Returns and Refunds
Thank you for purchasing products from Octane Distribution Ltd. We endeavour to offer the best quality products and aftersales care but if you do find yourself in the position where you would like to return goods, we are here to help.
We try our best to ensure correct product/vehicle listings but there are always exceptions to the rule and no cataloguing is 100% accurate. The best advice we can give is to visually check to see if any parts you have ordered fit BEFORE disassembling your vehicle. If you are unsure, please contact us for advice.
Products Incorrect / Damaged / Faulty
You must inform us of any damage or shortages within three working days of receipt. If items are missing from your order, it's most likely that they are on backorder and will be despatched when in stock. We are always happy to clarify this if you get in touch.
Products No Longer Required / Ordered by Mistake
You have 30 days to return unwanted items that are unused and in their original condition (including any packaging, tags and labels) with proof of purchase (i.e. a receipt or order confirmation email). Some exceptions may apply. You must always check with us first BEFORE returning the items and we will give you a returns number to help us with processing and identification. Items returned may be subjected to a restocking fee if the goods are damaged or show signs of having been used. You will be responsible for paying your own shipping costs for returning the items. Shipping costs are non-refundable and we would recommend using a tracked/insured courier service and we accept no liability for orders returned with no proof of delivery.
If you have any questions about returning goods, please contact us.
