Description

Arctic Technology heat dissipation pads from Superstar Components are a perfect way to upgrade your brake system to cope with hardcore riding and epic descents.


Using a custom made, CNC'd, aerospace specification aluminium fin which the pad slots into, Arctic pads run cooler than basic pads and the replaceable pad inserts mean you can keep your fins and replace only the pad element low cost replacements in the long term.

One pack includes 4 pairs of pads and 2 sets of fins so you can upgrade both of your brakes and have a spare pair of pads ready to fit.

Please consult our Pad Identifier and Pad Fitment Guide for more information.

Not sure which compound to choose?

We offer 2 compounds for our Arctic Technology brake pads as follows:

Sintered - Yellow:a hard pad for long life in abrasive and extreme conditions.
Kevlar - Orange: a soft race pad for ultimate power with Kevlar fibres for extended life. 

Please note: Arctic technology finned pads are only compatible with Arctic pads which are designed with a thinner backplate. Arctic pads can be identified by yellow backing on sintered pads and orange backing on Kevlar pads. Do not attempt to run Arctic pads without fins or standard pads with fins - they will not work!

    Firstly, I wasn't particularly keen on going for these finned pads- in my 10 years of AM and DH rinding, not once have I suffered noticeable fade or failure due to heat! However, I didn't have a choice as there were no regular pads for the Formula The One in stock. (There doesn't seem to be much of anything in stock

    I've ridden these on various race courses including Champéry WC track and can't fault them. Really hard to overheat. They've also remained completely silent throughout the use. Now that I have used also the replacement pair, I came here back for more.

    I have used the Kevlar pads on my last two bikes without fault and with awesome stopping power these pads have that power just look in my opinion really cheap.the finned plate for the pads stick out the top of the calliper to much and are nearly twice the height of the original saint pads also as mentioned in another review are fiddly to fit

  • Does Not Work With Guide Ultimates

    Look very good but DO NOT fit ALL SRAM Guides. They cannot bolt them into Ultimates as they do not fit into the different opening shape of the Ultimates.
