KOOLSTOP brake pads D635A organic aluminum for Shimano XTR | XT | SLX
The name Kool-Stop has always been associated with excellent braking and low wear.
Thanks to these properties, the pads from Oregon/USA are among the top retrofit brake pads and can even increase the performance of your brakes.
The rubbers are made of organic materials and bonded with synthetic resin. In order to improve braking properties and reduce abrasion, the pad contains small amounts of metal particles. Nevertheless, the pads are mostly organic, you could say they are semi-metallic. This mixture results in optimal dry and wet braking values and also keeps disc wear to a minimum.
For further weight reduction, aluminum carrier plates are used for type A pads, but these have higher thermal conductivity, which can lead to premature fading of the brakes under extreme stress, for example on long descents. Therefore, these pads are recommended for racing.
