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.
K5
Series:
The K5 sintered compound is optimal for
off-road motorcycles and ATVs. It is recommended for riders who demand
great off-road stopping power and brake pad durability when riding on tough
off-road terrains. The K5 series is designed for low abrasive interaction
with the rotor, long life and self-cleaning capabilities necessary in
off-road riding conditions. Friction materials contain metal-ceramic with a
sophisticated bronze-graphite and full-metal mixture formulation with fine
friction particles to achieve optimal friction
properties.
Features:
- High static
friction coefficient
- Good abrasive
resistance
- Self-cleaning capability
- Low abrasive
interaction with the brake rotor material
- Up to 3 times longer
operational life compared to organic and Kevlar composite
materials
Application:
- Developed
specifically for off-road motorcycles & ATVs
- Can be used on
both front and rear brakes
- Could be used on the rear brake of
road racing motorcycles

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.
