Hawk HB645W.490 DTC-30 Race Brake Pads for Wilwood DynaPro 6 6712 Caliper

Vehicle Fitment

This is a universal racing caliper brake pad. It is not vehicle-specific and is not sold for use with OEM stock calipers. Fitment is determined by caliper model. Compatible racing calipers include:

• Wilwood DynaPro 6A Lug Mount (pad shape 6712)
• Wilwood DynaPro Six Lug Mount (pad shape 6712)

Fitment Notes

• This pad is universal for racing calipers - it is not designed for OEM stock brake calipers and has no vehicle-specific fitment.
• Wilwood pad shape reference: 6712. This pad fits the Wilwood DynaPro 6A and DynaPro Six Lug Mount 6-piston racing calipers specifically. It is not interchangeable with other Wilwood caliper families such as the DynaPro 4-piston (7812/7816) or Superlite/Bridge Bolt (HB521 series) - verify your exact caliper model before ordering.
• Depending on your specific caliper configuration, the center mounting hole of this pad may need to be drilled. Verify your caliper's pad retention method before installation.
• Not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors. For use with iron/metal rotors only.
• DTC-30 is a motorsport compound. While it operates effectively from cold and has been used on street-driven vehicles where braking performance is the priority, it is a race-classification compound that produces more dust and noise than street compounds. It is not suited for comfortable daily driving.
• DTC-30 is frequently used on the rear axle of lighter race vehicles paired with DTC-60 at the front, and on both axles in dirt track, gravel rally, and drag racing applications where cold effectiveness and smooth engagement are prioritized over maximum peak torque through the DynaPro 6's 6-piston clamping force.
• Sold as a set of 4 pads (one axle / two calipers). For a full front-and-rear race brake upgrade, two sets are required.

Features

• DTC-30 Ferro-Carbon compound - Hawk's controllable-torque, multi-purpose motorsport formulation delivering smooth consistent feel and bite across a wide temperature range through the Wilwood DynaPro 6A and DynaPro Six 6-piston calipers, proven in dirt track, gravel rally, drag racing, autocross, and circuit racing where excellent cold effectiveness and smooth, manageable pedal feel are prioritized over maximum peak deceleration force.
• Excellent cold effectiveness - Provides strong, consistent brake torque from the DynaPro 6's 6-piston calipers from ambient temperature without any warm-up cycle, making DTC-30 the preferred compound for autocross competition, drag racing, and short-format circuit events where pads remain cold at the start of each run and elevated temperatures cannot be sustained before the first timed pass.
• Controllable, predictable medium torque - DTC-30's smooth, manageable torque output through the DynaPro 6's substantial 6-piston clamping force gives drivers the precision to modulate brake pressure and achieve clean caliper release without the abrupt engagement of higher-torque DTC compounds - essential for dirt track and gravel rally applications where controlled, progressive brake application through a large-piston caliper is more important than maximum braking force.
• Superior release characteristics - Delivers clean, linear brake release through each DynaPro 6 caliper application, supporting stable handling balance, neutral corner exit behavior, and smooth power application across all motorsport disciplines where the 6-piston Wilwood system is deployed.
• Very low rotor wear - Produces significantly lower abrasive rotor wear than DTC-60 and DTC-70, extending disc service life across competitive seasons and multi-event schedules - an important advantage for teams running premium rotors in conjunction with Wilwood DynaPro 6 caliper systems.
• Wide operating temperature range - 100-1,200°F total range with a 100-800°F optimal window, providing consistent performance from cold ambient through sustained high-load racing temperatures across dirt track, rally, autocross, and circuit applications - the broadest effective range of any compound available for the HB645 shape.
• Multi-purpose motorsport versatility - Proven and recommended for dirt circle track, gravel rally, NASCAR modified, drag racing, trophy trucks, pro buggies, and road course applications through the DynaPro 6 caliper family where controllable torque and cold effectiveness are more valuable than maximum peak deceleration.
• Effective as both a front and rear compound - On lighter platforms running Wilwood DynaPro 6 calipers, DTC-30 works well on both axles. In split-friction setups, it is the natural rear compound paired with DTC-60 at the front to bias braking torque forward while keeping rear engagement smooth and predictable through the 6-piston rear calipers.
• 100% asbestos, lead, chromium, cadmium, and antimony free - Manufactured in an ISO-certified facility to strict quality and environmental standards.

Product Description

The Hawk HB645W.490 DTC-30 brake pads bring Hawk's controllable-torque multi-purpose motorsport compound to the Wilwood DynaPro 6A Lug Mount and DynaPro Six Lug Mount 6-piston racing calipers using Wilwood's 6712 pad shape. As with all HB645 pads, this shape is specific to the DynaPro 6 lug mount family and is not interchangeable with the DynaPro 4-piston (7812/7816), Superlite, or other Wilwood pad shapes. Depending on caliper configuration, the center mounting hole may need to be drilled before installation.

DTC-30 is the most versatile compound available for the HB645 shape, operating across a 100-1,200°F range starting from ambient cold - wider than any other compound in the HB645 lineup. Through the DynaPro 6's 6-piston clamping force, DTC-30's smooth, controllable torque is specifically optimized for applications where the extreme initial bite of DTC-60 or DTC-70 would be counterproductive: dirt track events where low-grip surfaces demand gradual, predictable brake engagement; gravel rally stages where surface variation requires consistent modulation from cold; autocross competition where each run begins from a cold pad state; and drag racing where immediate response from ambient temperature is critical. The compound's very low rotor wear also extends disc service intervals across competitive seasons, making it cost-effective for teams running multiple events with Wilwood DynaPro 6 systems.

DTC-30 is a motorsport-classification compound. While it has been used successfully on street-driven performance cars where braking is the primary concern, it is not suited for quiet daily driving. Sold as a set of 4 pads covering one axle and two calipers. A second set is required for a complete front-and-rear race brake upgrade. Compatible with iron and metal rotors only; carbon ceramic brake discs are not supported.
