L05A-RF Resin Disc Brake Pads with Radiator Fin

Upgrade your stopping power with the Shimano L05A-RF resin disc brake pads — the successor to the popular L03A, built for quieter, more controlled braking with significantly better durability. A refined resin friction compound delivers smooth, progressive modulation with none of the harshness or noise associated with metallic pads, making every stop feel confident and predictable in both wet and dry conditions.

Each pad features an aluminum backing plate with radiator cooling fins that pull heat away from the braking surface, keeping temperatures lower on long descents and reducing brake fade. Paired with Shimano Ice Technology rotors like the RT-MT800 or RT-MT900, the difference in heat management and consistency is immediately noticeable.

Key Features:

• Resin friction compound for quiet, smooth, progressive braking
• ~50% better wear resistance than the L03A, ~110% better than the L02A
• Aluminum backing plate with radiator fin for improved cooling and reduced fade
• Narrow pad shape, 2-piston design
• Enhanced modulation when paired with Servo-Wave levers
