Anyone have a handy site/list of various coefficients of friction of various brake pads?
And if there were graphs of those at various temperatures it would be even better.

Didn't seen any coefficient of friction data for Pagid there...
...I did see a <a href="http://www.braketechnology.com/techinfo.html#frictiongraph">graph of coefficient of friction against temperature</a>, but there was no scale on the coefficient axis.

Ferodo Compounds with charts
The Ferodo DS3000 at 0.60 has the highest coefficient of friction of any compound I've been able to find in a pad that will fit our rear calipers. To allow more flexibiliy with front pads while maintaining bias, I'd like to find a rear pad even higher.
DS2500

Four different sets of Pagid data, and they don't agree particularly well ...
These two tables both look like they originally came from Pagid,
1. From <a href="http://www.ecparts.co.uk/pagid/comp.htm">ecparts.co.uk</a>
2. From <a href="http://www.needforspeed.co.uk/htmlpages/techBRP03.htm">needforspeed.co.uk</a>
And the two charts,

Let me know if you think you can make sense from all this.
