About Tektro Semi-Metallic Brake Pads

Gorilla Brakes Tektro-compatible semi-metallic brake pads are designed for riders who want reliable braking performance with smooth modulation and reduced noise. Using a blended organic and metallic friction compound bonded to a black back plate, these pads deliver dependable braking across a wide range of riding conditions.

Semi-metallic pads offer improved durability and heat resistance over organic compounds while remaining quieter and more rotor-friendly than sintered pads. This makes them ideal for mixed-use riding across MTB, road, and gravel disciplines.

🛠️ Key Performance Benefits

  • Balanced braking power with smooth, predictable modulation
  • Improved durability compared to organic compounds
  • Quieter operation than sintered pads
  • Reliable performance in dry and mixed conditions

🧪 Compound Characteristics

Compound Material Dry Perf. Wet Perf. Heat Resistance Durability Recommended Use

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Tektro semi-metallic brake pads?
Tektro semi-metallic brake pads use a blended organic and metallic friction compound bonded to a black back plate. They are designed to provide a balance of braking power, smooth modulation, and durability across a wide range of riding conditions.
What riding styles are Tektro semi-metallic brake pads best for?
Tektro semi-metallic brake pads are best suited to trail riding, XC, general MTB use, road and gravel riding, commuting, and mixed conditions where predictable braking and control are more important than maximum heat resistance.
Are Tektro semi-metallic brake pads suitable for e-MTBs?
They are suitable for light and moderate e-MTB use. For full-power e-MTBs, heavier riders, or prolonged steep descents, sintered or Enduro Pro compounds are recommended.
How do Tektro semi-metallic pads compare to Tektro sintered pads?
Semi-metallic pads are quieter, more rotor-friendly, and offer smoother modulation than sintered pads, but they do not handle extreme heat or prolonged heavy braking as effectively.
Do Tektro semi-metallic brake pads perform well in wet conditions?
They perform reliably in mixed and damp conditions. In consistently wet, muddy, or abrasive environments, sintered pads will provide better durability and braking consistency.
Are Tektro semi-metallic brake pads noisy?
No. Semi-metallic pads are generally quieter than sintered pads, particularly at low speeds and in dry conditions.
Do Tektro semi-metallic brake pads cause excessive rotor wear?
No. Semi-metallic pads are more rotor-friendly than sintered pads and typically result in lower rotor wear.
Do Tektro semi-metallic brake pads require bedding-in?
Yes. Proper bedding-in is required to achieve optimal braking performance, consistent feel, and maximum pad life.
Which Tektro brake systems are compatible with semi-metallic pads?
Tektro semi-metallic brake pads are available for major Tektro systems including Dorado, Gemini, Orion, HD-M series, Auriga, and Tektro road and gravel disc brake systems such as HD-R280, HD-R290, and Lyra.
