Resin Pads: Resin pads are made up of fibers and organic material that are bonded together with resin.

Pros: - Quieter - Shorter break-in period - More initial bite - Prevent heat buildup - Pushes heat back into the rotor

Cons: - Wear quicker - Not as good in wet/muddy conditions

Semi-Metallic Pads: Semi-metallic pads are made up of more copper fibers and organic material that are bonded together with resin.

Pros: - Quieter - Shorter break-in period - More initial bite - Prevent heat buildup - Pushes heat back into the rotor

Cons: - Wear quicker - Not as good in wet/muddy conditions

Multi-Metallic Pads: Multi-metallic pads are made up of more copper fibers and organic material that are bonded together with resin.

Sintered Pads: Sintered pads are made up of hardened metallic ingredients, which are bound together with pressure and temperature.

Pros: - Fade at a higher temperature than resin pads - Better performance in wet conditions - Last longer

Cons: - Louder - Longer break-in time - Not as much initial bite - Heat is conducted through the caliper, not the rotor

Multi-Metallic brake pads offer great initial bite, low disk wear, and a comfortable braking feel. They provide smooth braking with predictable and progressive power, a short break-in period, stability, durability, and suitability for all weather conditions, with a long working life. Multi-metallic brake pads make less noise than sintered metal pads and offer better modulation.
