WHY ORGANIC?
Sinter only make organic brake pads. Both organic and metallic pads are manufactured using a bonding process. Occasionally there is confusion around our name but we always like to point out we only make organic pads.
Organic pads are comprised of different types of fibres and materials. Each compound is a fine balance between lubricants and abrasives. It’s a little bit like baking a cake - small changes to ingredients or combinations can result in significantly different braking characteristics.
We use fibres such as kevlar, ceramics, clay minerals and carbon combined with resins. Our friction materials R&D lab go to great lengths to develop pads that deliver particular characteristics to suit individual riding styles and perform exceptionally.
One of the greatest benefits of organic pads is that they transfer less heat into the caliper via the rotor. They don’t conduct heat as readily as metallic pads so the braking energy is retained in the pad and rotor - the result is a more stable braking system with greater modulation and predictability.

ENDURO MOUNTAIN BIKE MAGAZINE CHOSE THE SINTER BRAKE LAB FOR THEIR BEST MTB DISC BRAKE TEST.
To find out which brake performs best, they spent several months testing at the laboratory to back up personal experiences with scientific evidence and discover the difference a set of high-quality pads can make.
Comparing the brake system performance on OEM pads against Sinter Green on three key metrics found:



SINTER BRAKE PADS IMPROVED PERFORMANCE WITH EVERY BRAKE SYSTEM WE TESTED.
Apart from showing the difference in power and heat management from the different brakes it was also very interesting to see the difference a change of brake pads can make to a brake system.
