The Future of Friction | OPUS Carbon Ceramics

The Material Reality

Stop PayingExotic Pricesfor Particle Board.

Look at standard OEM carbon ceramics from the big names. They use chopped fiber. Think of it like MDF or cheap particle board. It is just a bunch of short, weak fibers glued together. It chips easily, degrades quickly, and once that thin surface layer is gone, the rotor is expensive trash.

OPUS uses a 3D Continuous Long-Fiber Matrix. Think of it like solid, old-growth hardwood. Long, unbroken strands woven together for immense structural integrity. It resists wear, refuses to chip, and maintains structural integrity long after conventional ceramics have failed.

3D Continuous Long-Fiber Matrix

Long, unbroken strands woven together for immense structural integrity

Built to Last

The 3D continuous long-fiber matrix refuses to chip and maintains structural integrity under sustained abuse

Impact Resistant

Refuses to chip where conventional carbon ceramics fail at the surface layer

Cold Bite and Pedal Feel

The Biggest Liein the Industry.

The biggest lie in the industry is that carbon ceramics have to feel numb when cold. OPUS shatters that compromise.

Because of our proprietary 3D matrix and universal pad compatibility, our system delivers the most aggressive, confidence-inspiring cold bite of any carbon-ceramic setup on the market. From the first stop sign out of your driveway to the final hairpin at the track, you get immediate, linear modulation and a rock-solid pedal feel that traditional ceramics simply cannot match.

Immediate Cold Bite

Maximum confidence from the first stop sign out of your driveway

Linear Modulation

Consistent, predictable pedal feel from street to track, no surprises

Universal Pad Compatibility

Any OPUS pad works with any OPUS rotor across the entire product line

Aerospace Pedigree

OPUS Carbon Ceramic disc close-up detail

Built to Stop80,000-PoundAirliners.

The technology inside an OPUS rotor was not developed for weekend track days. It was developed to stop 80,000-pound commercial airliners and military jets. Our exact carbon-ceramic friction material is currently trusted by Boeing, Airbus, and classified military aerospace programs worldwide.

We took that exact same extreme-environment stopping power and bolted it to your hub. If it can stop a jet on a short runway, it can handle your braking zone.

Proprietary Technology

The Unfair Advantage.Exclusively Ours.

You cannot buy this material anywhere else. Period. The 3D continuous long-fiber matrix used in our rotors is so heavily guarded that OPUS holds the absolute exclusive rights to it in the entire automotive industry.

No other brake company has access to this. When you run OPUS, you are running a proprietary weapon that your competitors literally cannot buy.

Validation

Forged inthe Green Hell.

We don't rely on dyno numbers. We rely on lap times. OPUS braking technology has been extensively tested and validated on the most punishing 12.9 miles of asphalt on earth: the Nurburgring Nordschleife.

Our continuous-fiber matrix has been instrumental in securing record-setting lap times for prototype hypercars, proving its dominance under the most extreme, sustained abuse imaginable.

Performance Data

The NumbersDon't Lie.

Three independent data visualizations. One conclusion. The OPUS system outperforms both OEM options across every measurable dimension, from operating temperature ceiling to peak friction coefficient to total unsprung weight removed.

Performance figures shown are for the Porsche 991 GT3 / GT3 RS application. Specifications vary by vehicle fitment.

01 -- Friction Coefficient vs. Temperature

The Highest Friction.
The Widest Window.

The OPUS compound maintains a higher, flatter friction coefficient across a wider temperature range than either OEM option, with no fade within its 100-900 C operating window.

02 -- Performance Radar

Six Axes.
One Winner.

Across all six performance dimensions, the OPUS polygon fills the frame. The OEM systems do not.

03 -- Relative Performance Metrics

Category
by Category.

Scored 0-100 across seven performance categories. The OPUS system leads in every single one.

Unsprung Weight

44 lbs LighterThan Steel.

Unsprung weight is the most consequential mass on a performance car. It is the weight your suspension cannot control. The OPUS system removes 44 lbs of it, more than the OEM carbon ceramic option removes, without the fragility, the oxidation risk, or the replacement cost.

Figures shown for Porsche 991 GT3 / GT3 RS application.

OEM Steel95lbs

The System

Three Tiers.One Standard.

Every OPUS system ships with four friction discs, four brake pads, superalloy hardware pre-assembled, and four carrying and display cases. What separates the tiers is the hat, the finish, and the level of machine time invested. Any pad works with any rotor across all three lines.

OEM+

$13,900USD

Looks OEM.
Performs Beyond It.

The OEM+ retains the stock visual profile while replacing every critical component with something better. The hat is forged from 7075 aluminum, the same alloy used in aerospace structural components, paired with our proprietary superalloy hardware. From the outside, it looks like it belongs. From the braking zone, it does not.

What's Included

Four OPUS proprietary 3D continuous long-fiber friction discs
Four hats forged from 7075 aluminum alloy
Superalloy hardware, pre-assembled
Four OPUS Masterpiece Pads, engineered in partnership with a world-class motorsport manufacturer and optimized exclusively for our friction disc geometry
Four carrying and display cases

Masterpiece

$15,900USD

FEA-Optimized.
100 Hours.
F1-Finished.

The Masterpiece takes the OEM+ foundation and removes everything that does not need to be there. Each hat is FEA-analyzed and requires 25 hours of machine time to complete. No one else in the industry invests that. The result is a hat that is approximately 20% lighter than the OEM+ while maintaining identical structural integrity. The finish is F1-grade electroless nickel plating for superior heat and corrosion resistance.

The Masterpiece is the perfect fit for spirited canyon driving and occasional track days. It is built for the driver who wants the best of both worlds without compromise.

What's Included

Four OPUS proprietary 3D continuous long-fiber friction discs
Four FEA-optimized hats with F1-grade electroless nickel plating (25 hrs machine time each)

Motorsport

$22,900USD

Built for
One Thing.

The Motorsport is not a street system. It is a dedicated track weapon. The hat is machined from aluminum-lithium alloy and finished with a titanium nitride PVD coating, both materials used in F1. The TiN coating adds extreme surface hardness and thermal resistance without adding weight, and gives the hat its unmistakable gold hue. The friction discs are motorsport-spec, with the most aggressive cooling channel geometry in the range. The pads are built for maximum stopping force under sustained, extreme heat. If your car sees the street, get the Masterpiece. If it only sees the track, this is the only answer.
