Sintered Metallic Ferodo Pads Question
« on: March 28, 2020, 02:28:35 PM »
I just fitted a set of sintered metallic Ferodo pads to my 1974 Rickman CR Honda 750. It has iron discs. Some one on another forum suggested this will lead to “pyrotechnics”. I’d never heard this mix was a problem. Experiences? Thanks for your input.

I don't have any personal experience, but Ferodo's website says that they're only suitable for stainless discs.

Those pads were definitely not right. Got the correct ones today.
