What is sintering This is the fusing together under heat and pressure of metallic particles and in the case of brakes it blends various other elements to enhance friction properties and wear life. Sintered Brakes have become a standard on 99% of Motorcycles and ATVs from the OE Builders and they also form a large percentage of the aftermarket for bikes and ATVrsquos. Sintered brakes last longer and generally speaking handle the heat of heavy braking better. In Road Race use we have to admit that there are almost NO organic pads that come close to Sintered compounds but that does not hold true in streetbike use Although attempts were made by the OEMs a few years ago to cut costs of Sintered brakes by using sintered IRON, that was deemed a failure and these days the base material is copper. Sintered copper brakes are made by one of two processes, pressure sintering in a vacuum furnace or sintering through a belt furnace in a controlled atmosphere. The steel backing plates for the brake pads are copper coated and a preformed sintered copper ldquoPuckrdquo is located onto pips in the plate (either male or female) and the parts are passed through a furnace. At a pre-determined temperature the copper coating under the pad puck melts and fused the puck and plate together. In the aftermarket we continue to offer sintered brakes for applications requiring longer life and higher heat performance and semi-metal organic pads for general purpose street use. Comparison among semi-metal, organic and sintered (metallic) brake pads. Caution: Why many riders choose my sintered brake pads? I think this is the convincing reason. Right now, i will show you my experiment. Before the experiment. I will heat up the sintered brake pads with the flame gun. The highest temperature of flame generated by the flame gun is 1300C. These are one pair of brake pads These are the other models of metallic brake pads belo
