Expert Opinion
The Hawk SuperDuty compound is a great choice for heavy duty vehicles (3/4 ton and up) that are either towing or looking for the best braking performance offered for their vehicle. The SuperDuty will generate some brake dust, but will also stop your large heavy load without worry. Some smaller vehicles with undersized brake systems will also benefit for the Superduty compound if the OEM brkae pads are consistently being over heated. If your primary concern is towing, choose the SuperDuty.
