Description
The Shimano N04C Metal Disc Brake Pad is engineered for mountain bikers seeking unwavering stopping power and reliability on rugged terrain. Designed specifically for Shimano’s XTR BR-M9120 hydraulic disc brake system, this high-performance pad combines advanced cooling technology with a robust steel backing plate to ensure consistent braking even during prolonged descents or intense trail sessions. Its finned radiator design actively disperses heat, minimizing fade and extending service life—critical for riders tackling technical downhill runs or all-day endurance rides.
Crafted from a premium metal compound, these pads deliver sharp bite force and superior modulation control, giving you precise stopping power whether you’re navigating loose gravel or smooth singletrack. The steel backing plate adds structural integrity under extreme temperatures, maintaining stability during high-speed braking scenarios where other pads might warp or lose effectiveness.
Key Features:
– Radiator Cooling Fins: Reduces heat buildup for fade-resistant performance in demanding conditions
– Metal Compound: Provides aggressive yet controllable braking force on both wet and dry surfaces
– Steel Backing Plate: Ensures durability and resistance to deformation under heavy use
– XTR Compatibility: Direct fit for Shimano XTR M9120 disc brakes (also compatible with earlier M9100 models)

The combination of advanced thermal management and rugged construction means less frequent replacements and more confidence on your bike’s most critical moments. Whether you’re chasing podium finishes or simply pushing your limits on technical terrain, the N04C delivers unmatched reliability for riders who demand peak performance from their braking system.
