Jagwire Elite Cooling Disc Brake Pad: Semi-Metallic Aluminum-Backed for Magura MT8/MT4/MT Trail Rear
$9.29
Description
The Jagwire Elite Cooling Disc Brake Pad is engineered specifically for riders seeking reliable braking performance on Magura MT8/MT4/MT Trail Rear disc brakes. Designed to tackle demanding terrain and long descents, these pads combine semi-metallic friction material with an aluminum backing plate to minimize heat buildup and prevent fade during high-intensity rides. If you’re tired of brakes losing power on steep trails or in extended use scenarios, this upgrade delivers consistent stopping power even under extreme conditions. The aluminum core acts as a heatsink, dispersing energy away from the rotor interface to maintain optimal operating temperatures and prolong pad life—perfect for trail riders who prioritize control and durability.
Key Features & Benefits:
The semi-metallic composition balances bite and modulation for sharp responsiveness without sacrificing feel, while the reinforced aluminum backing provides superior structural support compared to standard steel-back alternatives. Unlike generic pads that warp or glaze at high temps, these Elite Cooling pads resist thermal distortion for smoother engagement and quieter operation across diverse riding surfaces. They’re optimized for Magura’s Trail Series rear brakes, ensuring precise fitment and compatibility with existing caliper systems—no adjustments needed for a seamless swap.
