Shimano L05A-RF Resin Disc Brake Pads with Cooling Fins
Maximum Control and Cooling for Your Bike
The Shimano L05A-RF resin brake pads with cooling fins offer a winning combination of silent braking, thermal dissipation, and long durability. Ideal for road, gravel, and MTB bikes, they integrate Ice Technologies for optimal heat management even during prolonged braking. The use of resin ensures smooth modulation and low noise levels. Ready to use with spring included.
Technical Features
Friction Material: Organic Resin
Modulatable and silent braking, ideal for cyclists seeking comfort and control.
Technology: Ice Technologies
Integrated fins for faster heat dissipation, consistent performance even on descents.
Compatibility: Shimano 2-piston brakes
Perfect for models like BR-RS805, BR-RS505, BR-RS405, BR-U5000, BR-R7070, and BR-RX810.
Pad shape: L (wide)
Greater contact surface for more effective braking.
Extended durability compared to L03A
New compound with 50% longer lifespan.
Pack with spring included
Everything needed for replacement in a single package.
Advantages
The L05A-RF Shimano pads are designed to meet the needs of the most demanding cyclists. Thanks to their organic resin, they ensure smooth and silent braking, reducing vibrations and squealing even in wet conditions. The aluminum cooling fins, part of Ice Technologies, prevent caliper overheating and extend pad life. They are particularly effective on long descents or during intensive sessions, improving safety and lever feel. Furthermore, the new formulation guarantees superior durability compared to previous models, with less frequent maintenance.
Recommended Use
Perfect for cyclists who practice road, gravel, or XC MTB, the Shimano L05A-RF resin pads are suitable for use on high-performance bikes, both for amateur and competitive riding. Their active cooling makes them ideal for hilly or alpine routes, where continuous braking can compromise system efficiency. Also excellent for light e-bikes, thanks to the combination of lightness, quietness, and thermal management.
Compatibility and Available Options
Compatible with Shimano 2-piston brakes including BR-R7070, BR-RS805, BR-RS505, BR-RX810, BR-RS405, BR-U5000. They replace L03A pads, offering greater durability and improved cooling. Available only in the version with Ice Technologies fins and spring included.
Conclusion
Choose the Shimano L05A-RF if you want next-generation brake pads with integrated cooling, quiet operation, and extended durability. Ideal for those seeking maximum control and efficiency, even under prolonged use.
