Some common materials used in organic brake pads include glass, fiber, rubber, carbon and Kevlar. Semi Metallic Semi Metallic Pads are the most versatile style available, with the slight compromise being more noise and dust. They are also longer lasting and more durable, and their metallic composition can help draw heat away from the rotor and aid in more efficient brake cooling. Ceramic Ceramic Pads are composed of a dense ceramic material with embedded copper fibers. In use since the 1980s, ceramic pads were developed as an alternative replacement for organic and semi-metallic brake pads. Ceramic pads are generally easier on rotors than semi-metallic pads. PROS Soft, quiet, easy on rotorsDon’t require much heat to generate good frictionProduce less dust than metallic pads CONS Only operate well within a relatively limited temperature rangeWear out quickly compared to other types of brake pads PROS Dramatically increased braking performance over organic padsHave a higher thermal threshold due to metallic contentHave a wider operating range (temperature)More resistant to brake fade than organic pads CONS Tend to be noisier than organic or ceramic padsProduce more brake dustMore abrasive than other types of pads – will wear brake rotors more quickly PROS Quieter than semi-metallic pads – emit noises that are above the range of human hearingLonger lifespan than organic or semi-metallicStable under a wide range of temperatures for consistent performance CONS Typically the most-expensive type of brake padDo not produce as much cold bite as semi-metallic pads – may not be ideal in extremely cold climatesDo not absorb heat as well as semi-metallic pads which can increase brake system temperatures
