It therefore represents an ideal alternative to original brake pads, both when cold and when hot. SA : This is a sintered compound, specific for front application, characterised by excellent efficiency in all conditions of use.
0-49 compounds are Carbon Ceramic and 50-99 are Sintered. The friction coefficient is expressed with a number that has a value from 1 to 99: the higher the value of this number the higher the friction coefficient of that particular compound will be. Genuine brake pads are available in various compounds, each of which is characterised by a different friction coefficient.
The cases where the catalogue code corresponds exactly to the material used on the specific application are highlighted in the catalogues you will find at your local dealer.
Genuine (G.): Selected by motorcycle manufacturers, this is the Carbon Ceramic material developed by Brembo as OEM equipment. The good friction coefficient of this material when cold allows efficient street use. The good friction coefficient when hot and above all the stability at high temperatures allow consistent braking performance from the start to the last lap. The good friction coefficient when hot and above all the stability at high temperatures allow consistent braking performance from the start to the last Sintered compound for sport street and moderate track use. SC : Sintered compound for sport street and moderate track use. At low temperatures the efficiency of this compound is limited and consequently it is suited for road use. These characteristics ensure superlative, consistent braking for the entire duration of the race and make the braking system much less prone to fade. The most significant characteristics of this compound are its high friction and consistent efficiency, especially at high disc temperatures. RC : A compound conceived solely for track use, a true racing pad suited for any type of competition. Please remind to choose the compound in the dropdown menu when you add the product to your cart. They are available for over 6000 applications, with a wide variety of compounds: from organic resins to sintered and carbon-ceramic pads.īrembo can therefore cater for the specific needs of every imaginable type of motorcycle - from race and street bikes to city and off-road machines - and fulfil the expectations of every rider. Using a combination of high quality brake pads and discs is a fundamental prerequisite for the optimum performance of any braking system.īrembo brake pads represent the best in terms of performance, comfort and durability. (If your motorcycle have 2 calipers, you need to buy 2 set.)
