Hawk HB727U.592 DTC-70 Race Rear Pads 2014-2019 Corvette C7 Stingray J55

Vehicle Fitment

• 2014-2019 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray - Base/1LT/2LT/3LT (6.2L LT1 V8, RWD) - Rear, J55 standard brake package, iron rotors

Fitment Notes

• Rear axle application only - OEM J55 standard brake package rear caliper, 0.592 in. pad thickness.
• Fitment is specific to C7 Stingray models equipped with the standard J55 brake package - does not fit C7 Stingray models equipped with the optional Z51 Performance Package, which uses a different rear caliper requiring a different pad shape.
• Does not fit the C7 Z06, Grand Sport, or ZR1 - those models use a different rear caliper system covered by the HB659 pad family.
• For circuit racing, HPDE, and high-performance track use only - not recommended for street daily driving.
• Not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors; designed for iron/metal rotors only.
• Expect significantly increased noise, dust, and rotor wear compared to street or intermediate compounds.
• Pads must reach operating temperature before delivering peak performance - requires a proper race bed-in procedure after installation.

Features

• DTC-70 compound is Hawk's highest-torque autocross and track compound - extremely aggressive initial bite with maximum deceleration force for demanding rear braking on the C7 Stingray's rear-wheel-drive platform.
• Exceptional torque control and superb modulation and release characteristics for precise, repeatable rear braking through consecutive corners.
• High temperature operating range of 400-1600°F with an optimal window of 800-1200°F - built for the most sustained, high-intensity braking demand at circuit speeds.
• Works effectively as a standalone rear compound or in a split-friction setup with DTC-60 fronts for optimized front-to-rear brake bias on the C7 platform.
• Proven across NASCAR, Sports Car/GT, Open Wheel/Formula, and Trans-Am competition.
• Backed by Hawk's limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.

Product Description

The Hawk HB727U.592 DTC-70 rear brake pads are engineered for the OEM J55 standard rear caliper on the 2014-2019 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray - the rear companion to the HB726 front pad family on the same brake package. For base C7 Stingray drivers competing at circuit events who have exhausted the capability of HP Plus or HP Plus-class compounds at the rear and need the maximum torque output available in a track compound, the DTC-70 delivers uncompromising race performance from the Stingray's rear braking system.

The DTC-70's extreme optimal temperature window of 800-1200°F means these pads deliver peak performance only under the most sustained, hard braking at professional circuit speeds. They are well-suited to split-friction setups paired with a lower-torque front compound to maintain rear-end stability and control on the Stingray's powerful RWD chassis. A thorough race bed-in procedure is mandatory after installation, and these pads must not be used on the street under any circumstances.
