Semi-metallic brake pads NUTT for Blade 10

Semi-metallic brake pads for compatible NUTT caliper

Two black brackets with side tabs and a rectangular friction surface make up this pair of semi-metallic brake pads. The friction area measures approximately 30 × 17 mm; a spring and retaining pin are included.

Features and fitment

• Model: Blade 10.
• Brake compound: semi-metallic.
• Black pads with a lining width of approximately 30 mm and a height of 17 mm.
• Pair with spring and cotter pin; shape for compatible NUTT caliper.

Approximate dimensions

• Friction surface: 30 × 17 mm.

The 30 × 17 mm figure refers to the friction surface, not the overall outline. Before replacing, check the installed caliper and the position of the mounting tabs, especially on vehicles with upgraded brakes.

Use applies only to the installed NUTT caliper with the corresponding shape and pad mounting.

Brake compound

The semi-metallic compound combines metal particles and a resin binder. The mixture represents a compromise between initial bite and heat resistance. A clean disc and gradual bedding-in of the new pair are important for consistent braking.

When to replace and how to start

• Inspect pads if braking is poor, uneven wear occurs, or if they are contaminated. Replace both pads in the same caliper; check the brake's manual for the minimum allowable thickness.
• Remove the safety clip and the old pair. Following the procedure for your caliper, prepare space for the new pads, then insert the spring, the new pair, and the safety clip. Do not grease the friction surfaces.
• Check for free wheel rotation and lever operation. Bed in the new pads with several gradual decelerations in a safe area, without locking the wheel.
