Shimano J05A-RF Brake Pads for XTR, XT, SLX, Alfine

Shimano J05A-RF Brake Pads for XTR, XT, SLX and Alfine - Extra long service life

Shimano's J05A-RF brake pads have an organic lining on a lightweight aluminium backing plate and feature Ice-Tech cooling fins. They are compatible with older XTR brakes, with XT, SLX, Deore as well as older Alfine and certain Road 2-piston disc brakes. Compared to the J03A model, the wear resistance has been extended by approx. 40%. The built-in cooling fins provide excellent heat dissipation, thus reducing the risk of fading and at the same time increasing the service life of the brake pad. In addition, the J05A-RF impress with best dosage and a very low noise development. Thanks to their above-average braking power, stability and optimised thermal insulation, they perform reliably in both dry and wet conditions.

Technology:

Ice-Tech
Shimano Ice Technologies provide a fast heat dissipation at your disc brake. The brake pads are equipped with aluminium cooling fins. The brake rotor is constructed using a sandwich technique in which stainless steel encloses an aluminium core. The stainless steel on both flanks ensures long durability, the aluminium allows heat dissipation.
