DP Brakes Standard – DP617 Sintered Brake Pads

Description

Precision Braking for the Modern Rider

Engineered to handle the weight and speed of today’s versatile street and adventure bikes, the DP617 provides a predictable and progressive lever feel. Whether you are performing an emergency stop in the rain or trail-braking through a mountain pass, the specialized sintered compound ensures your braking response remains sharp and reliable.

Advanced Thermal Management

To maintain peak performance during heavy use, the DP617 includes a high-tech ceramic heat shield on the backplate. This aluminum oxide-based barrier acts as a thermal insulator, preventing heat from transferring into the caliper and brake fluid. This technology effectively eliminates “spongy” brakes and ensures a firm, consistent lever feel throughout your entire ride.

Long-Life, Rotor-Friendly Formula

Designed to outlast standard organic and aramid pads by a significant margin, the DP617 is built for high-mileage performance. Despite its rugged construction, the formula is non-aggressive to stainless steel rotors, offering a smooth, noise-free operation and significantly reduced brake dust—keeping your wheels cleaner for longer.
