Brake Pads for Off Road / MX Motorcycles

Galfer produces many different brake pad compounds for all types of riding styles. With over 60 years of friction material production, we have learned that one compound doesn’t always do the trick across the board. So, no matter if you are looking for an O.E.M. type replacement or a high performance race compound, we have you covered.

Semi-Metallic / Organic Brake Pads

HH Sintered Advanced Ceramic Brake Pads

For moderately aggressive offroad use
Advanced ceramic composites ready to withstand higher temperatures than your O.E.M. brake pads
HH friction rated compounds deliver excellent feedback, feel and modulation
Capable of handling almost any type of riding you throw at them

G1396 Compound

Our 1396 compound is the result of years of testing in all kinds of riding and all types of terrain. Based on Advanced Ceramics, this compound is designed to deliver excellent performance in all aggressive scenarios. It offers very fast heat recovery for more consistent braking which, in turn, gives the rider more “feel” and control. These pads are very easy on rotors since they do not have the same levels of metallics in them as many O.E.M. and after-market brands. The 1396 compound also features ceramic composites in its mix, which help to dissipate heat. This gives you a cooler running system that will be able to withstand more heating cycles and deliver consistent braking. Available for all off road and dual-sport applications.
