Compatibility

Match your exact caliper model and existing pad shape before ordering. These pads fit Tektro HD-R290, HD-R310 and HD-R510 flat-mount calipers. F10BS and F10XS identify the compatible pad shape, not additional caliper models.

E-bike use

Factory Racing Titanium is an e-bike-rated compound. Use this pad shape only with the compatible calipers listed here, and match the complete brake setup to your bike and total load.

Rotor compatibility

This compound is suitable for all bicycle disc brake rotor types, including rotors marked “resin pads only”.

Rotor diameter and thickness must meet your brake manufacturer’s specifications. Check rotor condition and minimum permitted thickness before fitting new pads.

Compound performance

Factory Racing Titanium

STEALTH compound performance with less backing-plate weight. Factory Racing Titanium combines strong dry and wet braking with a lighter titanium backing plate.

Factory Racing Titanium shares the tested compound profile and braking feel of Factory Racing Stealth Purple. The ratings and shared power result follow that confirmed performance equivalence; they do not separately score or test the titanium backing plate. Chart readings are approximate.

Compound ratings out of 10

These scores describe the friction compound.

Approximate ratings out of 10 from the supplied Factory Racing compound chart. Higher ratings indicate stronger performance in that category; a higher quietness rating means quieter braking.

Compound testing

Factory Racing Titanium: shared compound braking power

These pads use a titanium backing plate, offering less weight than the steel-backed STEALTH option. The ratings describe the shared friction-compound performance.

In the published HEL and Lewis rotor comparisons, steel and titanium samples showed closely grouped caliper-temperature behaviour. These results describe the tested setups and do not measure backing-plate cooling time.

The graph compares pad compounds and backing-plate configurations, all tested with the Shimano XT RT86 rotor.

Why some curves stop earlier

Each test run stopped when the measured caliper temperature reached 120°C, the stopping threshold used to protect the piston seals in this test setup. The horizontal axis shows rotor temperature. Sintered’s shorter curve means the caliper reached the limit at a lower rotor temperature.

About this test

This chart compares braking power for bedded-in pads, all tested with the Shimano XT RT86 rotor. The horizontal axis shows rotor temperature (°C); the vertical axis shows braking power (W). Each curve represents the compound and backing-plate configuration named in the selector. Compare curves within their plotted ranges; no result is shown beyond the end of a curve.

The Factory Racing Stealth Purple curve is used for Titanium because Gorilla Brakes confirms the same compound performance. Its highest plotted output in the Shimano XT RT86 rotor comparison was approximately 1,030 W. This is a shared compound result, not a separate titanium backing-plate test, a maximum power rating or a fitment test. Values are approximate reconstructions from the supplied graph.

Test context: All pads shown can be good choices for their intended use when correctly matched to the bike and rotor, installed and bedded in. A lower or shorter curve does not by itself make a pad a poor everyday choice. Real riding temperatures depend on the route, total load, braking technique and setup; this test does not establish a temperature limit for the average rider. Rotor choice can substantially affect braking power, but these results apply to the tested combinations. This comparison does not guarantee the same improvement on another bike or identify one best pad for every rider.

Your questions

About these brake pads

Fitment, materials and performance explained.

What do the performance ratings describe?

Factory Racing Titanium shares the tested compound profile and braking feel of Factory Racing Stealth Purple. The ratings and shared power result follow that confirmed performance equivalence; they do not separately score or test the titanium backing plate. Chart readings are approximate. These scores describe the friction compound. Individual pad shapes, backing plates and calipers have not been separately scored here. Approximate ratings out of 10 from the supplied Factory Racing compound chart. Higher ratings indicate stronger performance in that category; a higher quietness rating means quieter braking.

How do I check that these pads fit my brakes?

Match the exact caliper model and existing pad shape to the compatibility table on this page. Do not rely on the brake lever name or series alone. Check the front and rear calipers separately, because some systems use different pad shapes at each end.

Which rotors can I use with this compound?

This compound is suitable for all bicycle disc brake rotor types, including rotors marked “resin pads only”. Rotor diameter and thickness must meet your brake manufacturer’s specifications. Check the rotor’s condition and minimum permitted thickness before fitting new pads.

Do new brake pads need bedding in?

Yes. Follow the installation guide and complete the recommended bedding-in procedure before demanding riding. Bedding in prepares the new friction material and establishes an even transfer layer on the rotor.

Can I use these pads on an e-bike?

Yes. Factory Racing Titanium is an e-bike-rated compound. Use this pad shape only with the compatible calipers listed here, and match the complete brake setup to your bike and total load.

What is included in one pack?

Each pack contains 2 brake pads and 1 pad spring for one compatible caliper. Check the front and rear calipers separately before ordering two packs.

Arrived promptly, fitted easily, so far so good .

Hi David, thanks for sharing your positive experience! We're glad the brakes arrived quickly and fitted easily. Enjoy your rides!

Having upgraded from the standard pads the bike came with to these, there is a noticeable difference in feel with fade free braking confidence now. Easy direct swap and after an initial bedding in period they are so much better. No noise from this compound either.
