No it was'nt a paste type of filler, but a solid disc phenolic or other material.  must be heat resistant and cannot deform under high compression.

This sounds very plausible. Now I wonder what sort of filler material they use? I was thinking that Devcon (an industrial version of JB Weld) might do a good job.

Hi Ed, Todd

The pucks that I've seen that had recesses had a filler (heat barrier) material that sits slightly proud of the metal edge.  I believe the purpose is to reduce heat from the pads transfering to the caliper.
