GOLDfren began manufacturing sintered disc brake pads for a wide range
of off-road and road motorcycles in 1991, nearly three decades on from
their first motorcycle brake pads GOLDfren has become one of the largest
aftermarket manufacturers in the motorcycle brake disc pad industry. Their
development of next-generation products has kept them at the technological
forefront of Sintered Friction Braking providing you with confidence in the
performance, durability and reliability of your brakes.
S3
Series:
The S3 sintered compound is optimal in dry
and wet conditions for road & off-road motorcycles. For the road
application, S3 pads are suitable for both the front and rear brake while
on off-road applications the S3 is only recommended for the front brake.
The S3 series is designed for low abrasive interaction with the rotor and
quieter braking due to the ceramic composite material. It has an HH
friction rating and performs better at higher temperatures than the AD
compound. Friction materials contain metal-ceramic with a bronze-graphite
and non-metallic friction additives are spread evenly on the base fine
bronze body to achieve optimal friction
properties.
Features:
- Very high
static friction coefficient
- Minimal difference between wet and
dry braking performance
- Good abrasive resistance
- Low
abrasive interaction with the brake rotor material
- Longer life
compared to organic and Kevlar composite
materials
Application:
- For
riders who demand a bit more than average from their
bikes
- Recommended on both front and rear brakes (road
application)
- Can also be used on the front brakes of off-road
bikes and ATVs
- Works well on both dry and wet
conditions

What is a sintered brake
pad?
GOLDfren only manufacturers sintered brake pads that
contain metal-ceramic and ceramic-carbon friction materials, these
materials allow for less brake dust and a quieter braking experience.
Sintered brake pads are made by fusing together metallic particles under
high temperature and pressure which enhances friction properties and pad
life, resulting in longer life and stronger braking. Sintered brake pads
experience no brake fade when operating at high temperatures and in wet
conditions. They also last up to 5 times longer than organic pads and
provide additional braking strength. All materials used are environmentally
friendly and do not contain any lead, asbestos, fibreglass or
formaldehyde.
Reminder: one set of brake pads services one brake disc, if you are
servicing multiple discs you will need multiple sets of brake pads.
