Compatibility condition: Shimano BR-MT420 caliper installed. Also compare with the pad shape of the D01S/D02S/D03S family.

Brake compound

Sintered metal compound generally handles heat and wear well in wet conditions. Compared to organic, it can be louder and causes more disc wear. Use a disc that allows metal pads.

When to replace and how to start

• Inspect the pads in case of reduced braking performance, uneven wear, or contamination. Replace both pads in the same caliper; check the minimum allowed thickness in the brake manual.
• Remove the retaining clip and the old pair. Follow the procedure for your specific caliper to prepare the space for the new pads, then insert the spring, the new pair, and the clip. Do not grease the friction surfaces.
• Check the wheel's free rotation and brake lever operation. Bed in the new pads with several gradual decelerations in a safe area, without locking the wheel.
