Magura MT5 - Sintered

Miles Racing ® sintered disc brake pads

Heavy weight champions and all those who hammer down the hills swear on sintered pads. The overall braking power is a bit less than on our semi metallic pads, but they can handle way more heat than any other brake pad compound and offer a more stable braking performance specially during long downhill sections. You can use them in all conditions, no matter if wet or dry.
Sintered pads are the first choice for downhill and freeride use and for people who bring a bit more weight on the scale. If you´re based in Whistler, than those little fellas are definitely a must.

MILES RACING – WE SLOW DOWN YOUR JOURNEY

-        High percentage of iron and copper

-        Most stable braking power under extreme riding conditions

-        Very high heat resistance (850° - 900°)

-        Designed for extreme freeride and dh use – race approved

Attention: To avoid glazing, sintered brake pads need a running in time without heat development. The first 200 brake applications should get done controlled under lower speed. This process helps to roughen up the surface of the friction material. Because of the high metal portion, sintered brake pads need a disc with bigger holes on the braking surface, to keep the surface of the friction material rough.
