Hardheaded Ram Professional Disc Brake Pads – Ceramic & Kevlar Reinforced

Upgrade Your Stopping Power. Experience the Hardheaded Ram Difference.

Stop settling for noisy, fast-wearing brake pads. Hardheaded Ram disc brake pads are engineered for the most demanding riders, from high-speed E-bike commuters to aggressive Downhill (DH) mountain bikers. Unlike standard pads that use cheap fillers, every Hardheaded Ram pad is infused with a proprietary blend of Ceramic and Kevlar fibers to ensure ultimate safety, silence, and longevity.




The Hardheaded Ram Advantage: Why Ceramic & Kevlar?

Most riders are forced to choose between the "bite" of organic pads and the "durability" of metallic pads. Hardheaded Ram eliminates that compromise.

  • Aerospace-Grade Ceramic Fibers: Our ceramic-composite material is designed to dissipate heat faster than traditional resin. This prevents brake fade on long, steep descents and ensures a stable friction coefficient, meaning your brakes feel just as strong at the bottom of the mountain as they did at the top.
  • Genuine DuPont™ Kevlar® Fibers: We integrate Kevlar to act as a vibration damper. It absorbs the high-frequency micro-vibrations that cause "brake squeal." The result? A whisper-quiet stop even in damp or dusty conditions.
  • Copper Fiber Infusion: While others use steel fibers that can be abrasive to your rotors, we use copper. Copper provides superior thermal conductivity and is rotor-friendly, extending the life of your expensive discs.


Optimized for E-Bikes & Heavy Loads

E-bikes are heavier and faster, placing immense strain on braking systems. Hardheaded Ram pads are specifically tested for E-MTB and Cargo Bike applications:

  • High Thermal Mass: Handles the increased kinetic energy of 50lb+ bikes easily.
  • Instant Cold Bite: No "warm-up" period required; get full stopping power from the first squeeze of the lever.
  • Extended Wear Life: Ceramic and Kevlar fibers significantly outlast standard organic pads, saving you money and maintenance time.


Technical Specifications

  • Compound: Advanced Ceramic-Kevlar Composite (Non-Asbestos Organic).
  • Backing Plate: High-strength stamped steel with corrosion-resistant coating.
  • Temperature Rating: Optimized for up to 600°C (1112°F).
  • Best Use: Mountain Biking (MTB), E-Bikes, Road, Gravel, and Commuting.

Package Includes:

  • 2 Set of Hardheaded Ram Pads (Enough for 2 Caliper).
  • Stainless Steel Retaining Spring (where applicable).

Stop Faster. Ride Longer. Stay Quiet. Choose Hardheaded Ram.
