Minimum pad thickness PFC08?

Can anyone state what the approximate minimum pad thickness is for these brake pads for track usage? Thanks,

No less than backing plate thickness. To be safe, I'd say 25% of initial (new) pad thickness.

I've run them down to the backing plate, but the thinner they get, the more heat transfers rapidly

Backing plate thickness minimum is a good rule of thumb
