Gorilla Brake new Eco friendly disc brake pads

Gorilla Brakes’ New Silent and Eco Friendly Brake Pad Compound


Introducing the Next Evolution of Braking:
Gorilla Brakes' Silent and Eco Conscious Compound

At Gorilla Brakes, we’re always advancing the balance between performance and sustainability. We’re proud to launch our latest innovation: The Silent Compound with an Eco Conscious Copper Free Formula. This new compound offers quiet, powerful braking, engineered with the planet in mind.

The Silent Compound: Redefining What It Means to Stop

Our organic compound is designed for smooth, quiet braking in suitable conditions. Water, contamination, alignment and rotor condition can still cause noise; silence on every stop is not guaranteed.

Engineered for Perfection:

  • High density ceramic and Kevlar blend for extended pad life.
  • Noise reducing multiple fiber layers to absorb vibration.
  • Optimized braking control, even on long descents.

Meticulously crafted for riders who demand a silent ride with uncompromised performance. Available in multiple fitments for Shimano, SRAM, Magura, and more.

Eco Conscious Copper Free Formula: Better for You, Better for the Planet

The copper free formulation reduces copper in the friction material. That is a composition choice, not evidence that all wear particles are harmless to waterways or that the product has no environmental impact.

Why It Matters:

  • Copper free: Contains no added copper in the friction formulation. Dispose of worn pads responsibly.
  • Heat Resistant: Keeps braking consistent under pressure.
  • Intended use: Follow the current Factory Racing Organic product guidance for lighter use. Choose a compound intended for the higher load if riding an electric bike, carrying heavy loads or descending for long periods.

Perfect for conscious riders who demand the best. This new generation of disc brake pads is your go to for sustainable performance riding.

Hi,

I recently got handed a set of your Shimano EVO pads to try out. I can honestly say that they worked well under a variety of conditions. Great braking performance in the wet and dry, I even subjected them to a bit of mud up in the Highlands of Scotland. Given these conditions I got about 500 miles out of the pads. I’m very happy with how they performed.

Best regards from a very happy Gorilla Brakes customer.

Will be buying some more of your products v soon.
