With these brake pads, Shimano is using aluminum cooling fins on the brake pads for the first time. These dissipate the heat generated during braking and significantly reduce the tendency of the brake system to overheat! The limit range can be shifted significantly.
Compared to plastic pads, metal pads offer a higher braking effect, less wear and better temperature stability. However, they tend to generate more noise and increase wear on the brake disk.
J05A: Approx. 50 % better wear resistance compared to J03A
Easily adjustable braking force
Smooth and noiseless braking process
Additional holes on the carrier plate (metal)
- Increased braking force and stability
- With cooling fin: cooling technology increases the service life of the brake pad and reduces the risk of fading
- Metal brake pad: high-strength pad material, longer service life, high braking force under extreme conditions, design for sand and mud
