Shimano L03A Resin Disc Brake Pads

Recommended for use with Shimano Dura Ace, Ultegra and Metrea disc brake calipers, these brake pads offer excellent stopping performance on your road bike. They feature a hard-wearing alloy backing plate construction, which makes them more than capable of handling all the braking pressure associated with longer road journeys. Coming equipped with a resin surface compound, these disc brake pads offer consistent performance in all-weather conditions. This means you can stay in control, even in the wettest of riding conditions.

Road Disc Brake Pads with Cooling Technology

Designed for smooth braking performance on your road bike, these disc brake pads are kitted out with Shimano's renowned Ice Technology. This improves radiation performance and reduces heat-build up when cornering and tackling intense riding situations where consistent braking is needed.

Technologies:

Ice Technologies: The fade, which can occur to disc brake rotor and pad when braking on a long downhill ride for instance, has a negative impact on the braking performance. Shimano has adopted Ice Technologies pads to realise the cooling technology for consistent performance. The clad disc brake rotor blade, which has a 3 layer-sandwich structure of stainless steel, aluminium and stainless steel, provides better radiation performance achieving from 400˚C to 300˚C surface temperature. Also, the radiation fin has been adopted for the pad. Moreover, the clad disc brake rotor blade and the radiator fin provide long pad life, less noise, less fade and lightweight. Available in resin or metal compound, the optional radiation fin pad with a 2-layer backplate (aluminium fin with stainless steel) further improves radiation performance.
