Hinz Carbon Brake System Targets Supply Gaps and Rising Costs in Performance Braking Market

Milwaukee, United States – April 22, 2026 / Hinz Motorsport /

Milwaukee, WI – April 20, 2026 – 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 – a braking solution developed to deliver strong stopping performance while addressing supply and pricing challenges affecting the current market.

The system was developed in direct response to inventory shortages, rising costs, and tariffs impacting traditional carbon ceramic brake suppliers. Hinz Motorsport designed a high-quality alternative that prioritizes both performance and value, incorporating advanced materials, refined manufacturing methods, and notable design improvements.

Central to the system is a unique integrated friction layer that allows for the use of more aggressive brake pad compounds while meaningfully extending disc life – a technical distinction that differentiates Hinz Motorsport within the performance braking segment.

“Our goal was to solve a real problem in the market while raising the standard of performance,” said Rick Hinz, Owner of Hinz Motorsport. “We’ve created a system that 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
Higher friction coefficient for stronger, more responsive stopping power
Easier bed-in process, delivering optimal performance faster after installation
Expanded pad compatibility, allowing drivers to tailor performance to their specific needs
Increased durability and longevity, reducing long-term replacement costs
Low dust and noise, preserving both aesthetics and driving comfort
Weight savings, improving overall vehicle dynamics and handling

The system is produced through a slower, precision-controlled manufacturing process that minimizes impurities and promotes more uniform silicon infiltration, resulting in a higher-grade silicon carbide structure. The approach yields greater consistency, strength, and reliability under demanding conditions.

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 other products in the segment.

The system is designed for performance street, track, and race applications, built to suit high-end vehicles including Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren, Audi, Lamborghini, BMW, and other performance-oriented platforms.

The system is particularly suited for enthusiasts and owners looking to preserve factory carbon ceramic systems for resale, reduce brake dust and noise, or operate a single pad setup across both street and track environments – offering a versatile and cost-effective option without sacrificing performance.

Availability:

Hinz Motorsport Carbon Ceramic Brake Systems are now available for order. While some kits remain in production, customers may place orders immediately. Non-stock configurations carry a typical lead time of approximately 14 weeks, and the company is actively scaling inventory to meet demand.
