Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB)Standard brake unit (Cayman S)
Standard brake unit (Cayman)
Braking system.
The acceleration of the Cayman
models is impressive. Even more

impressive, perhaps, is the vehicle’s
maximum braking power, which
comfortably tames the power of
the engine.
Four-piston aluminium monobloc
brake calipers are fit ted front and
rear. Offering excellent rigidit y,
they are compact and save on
weight. Their superior responsive -
ness, for fast and sensitive
braking, sets them apart. A brake
booster provides assistance,
reducing pedal effort whilst main -
taining a powerful braking effect.
A special ventilation system,
whereby the entire wheel brake
is supplied with cooling air by
openings in the front end and
special channelling systems,
increases the stabilit y of the
brakes during heav y use. The front axle of the Cayman
and Cayman S features internally
vented brake discs with a diameter
of 318 mm. 299 mm brake discs
are fit ted to the rear axle. The
result is outstanding braking

performance. The rear brake discs
of the Cayman S are 4 mm thicker
than those of the Cayman, which
increases stabilit y under load even
further. To distinguish them visually,
the brake calipers on the Cayman
have a black anodised
finish while
those on the Cayman S
are painted
red.
For reduced weight, optimum
braking in the wet and improved
cooling, the brake discs on both
models are cross- drilled.
For the Cayman S, the Porsche
Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB)
is available as an option.

corrosion and offer more favour-
able noise-damping properties.
Six-piston aluminium monobloc
fixed calipers on the front axle
and four-piston units at the
rear provide a high and constant
brake pressure. The pedal
response is fast and precise with
only moderate input required. of even the most durable brake
pads and discs. We recommend
that all brake components be

professionally inspected and
replaced where necessary af ter
every track event.Porsche Ceramic Composite
Brake (PCCB).
On request, we can equip your
Cayman S with a brake system
that has already had to cope
with the harshest requirements of
motorsport: the Porsche Ceramic
Composite Brake (PCCB). The
ceramic brake discs have a diam -
eter of 350 mm front and rear –
for extremely powerful braking. All the necessary ingredients are
there for a short braking distance,
even in the toughest conditions.
Moreover, safet y under braking

at high speeds is increased thanks
to the excellent fade resistance
of PCCB.
The key advantage of PCCB is that
the brake discs are approximately
50 % lighter than standard discs
of similar design and size. A factor
The brake discs are formed from

a specially treated carbon -fibre
compound that is silicated in a
high-vacuum process at approxi -
mately 1,700 °C. Not only are the
resulting discs much harder than
standard discs, they are more
resistant to heat. The low thermal
expansion of the brake discs
prevents deformation under heav y
braking. Furthermore, the ceramic
brake discs are totally resistant to that helps to reduce unsprung and
rotating masses on the vehicle.
The consequence of this is bet ter
road holding and increased
comfort, particularly on uneven
roads, as well as greater agilit y
and improved handling.
Please note that circuit racing,
trackday use and other forms
of performance driving can
significantly reduce the service life

it is automatically reactivated for
your safet y if either of the front
wheels (in ‘Sport ’ mode, both
of the front wheels) requires ABS
assistance. ABD remains perma -
nently active. Two additional
functions of PSM increase safet y
even further: precharging of the
brake system, and brake assist.
If you suddenly release the accel -
erator pedal, PSM automatically
readies the braking system. With
the braking system having been
precharged, the brake pads are
already in light contact with the
brake discs. Maximum braking
power is therefore achieved much the car. The forces exerted in a
frontal collision are transmit ted
into the side structure along a
higher load path (4), which improves
the deformation characteristics
of the passenger cell even further.
Porsche Stability Management
(PSM).
PSM, which comes as standard, is
an automatic control system that
stabilises the vehicle at the limits
of dynamic driving performance.
Sensors continuously monitor
driving direction, speed, yaw veloc-
it y and lateral acceleration. Using
this information, PSM computes the
actual direction of motion. If this
direction deviates from the desired
course, PSM initiates braking
interventions targeted at individual
wheels in order to stabilise the
vehicle.
sooner. When sudden braking is
detected, the brake assist function
applies maximum brake pressure
to all four wheels.
Passive safety:
engineered design.
The system of longitudinal and
transverse members at the front
of the vehicle (1) distributes the
Under acceleration on wet or
low-grip road surfaces, PSM
improves traction using the ABD
(automatic brake differential)
and ASR (anti-slip regulation)
functions, giving an agile
response. When ‘Sport ’ mode is
selected on the optional Sport
Chrono Packages (p. 62), the PSM
intervention threshold is raised to
enable greater driver involvement
– particularly at speeds of up to
approximately 70 km/ h (45 mph).
The integrated ABS can further
reduce the braking distance.
For an even sportier drive, PSM
can be deactivated. However, forces exerted onto the bodyshell
in the event of an impact and

minimises deformation of the
passenger cell. Our patented

body work structure with a rigid
bulkhead cross member (2) made
of ultra high-strength steel absorbs
the forces introduced into the
system of longitudinal members
which prevents deformation of the
foot well. The reinforced doors (3)
contribute to the overall rigidit y of
