Description

The Galfer Semi-Metallic Front Brake Pads FD178 are designed as the workhorse of the Galfer brake pad line, offering a balanced solution for everyday riding. These pads provide a progressive feel and modulation, making them suitable for both street use and touring applications. They feature a semi-metallic compound with a GG rating and a coefficient of friction ranging from 0.45 to 0.55, contributing to their versatile performance. Key features of the FD178 brake pads include their longevity and minimal impact on rotor wear. They perform well in both wet and dry conditions, offering consistent stopping power. They are sold in pairs and are recommended for initial light to medium braking to ensure proper break-in. It's important to note that these are vehicle-specific brake pads. While specific fitment details are best confirmed through the vehicle selector, examples of compatible vehicles include the 2002-2003 Kawasaki ZX-9R Ninja and the 2022-2023 Yamaha XP 560 T-MAX. Always ensure compatibility with your specific make and model before purchase.
