Shimano Saint BR-M820 Disc Brake Caliper With Ice-tech Metal Pad

he ultimate gravity and downhill brake, the Saint hydraulic disc brake features a rigid caliper, 4-ceramic pistons, and integrated Ice Technologies heat management.

Technologies

Ice Technologies -The fade, which can occur to disc brake rotor and pad when braking on a long downhill ride for instance, has a negative impact on the braking performance. Shimano has adopted Ice Technologiesdisc brake rotor and Ice Technologies pad to realise the cooling technology for consistent performance. The clad disc brake rotor blade, which has a 3 layer-sandwich structure of stainless steel, aluminum and stainless steel, provides better radiation performance achieving from 400?C to 300?C surface temperature. Also, the radiation fin has been adopted for the pad. Moreover, the clad disc brake rotor blade and the radiator fin provide long pad life, less noise, less fade and lightweight.

One Way Bleeding -was developed for quick and easy prevention of air in our hydraulic system. We have streamlined the oil route throughout the system to prevent air bubbles from being captured in the system.

One way oil routing plus a funnel tool with mineral oil provides an easy and clean bleeding system.
