Description
Hope E4 Disc Brake Pads
The Hope E4 disc brake pads are designed for Hope Tech 3 and Race E4 brake systems. Available in different compounds, these brake pads allow riders to choose the ideal balance between braking power, durability, modulation, and performance depending on their riding style and conditions.
The sintered compound is the harder and more durable option, designed to handle extreme temperatures, demanding terrain, and heavy braking conditions such as downhill and enduro riding.

Sintered Compound (Hard)
Sintered brake pads are made from a resin compound mixed with metallic particles. This creates a harder, more durable pad that provides excellent resistance against wear and high temperatures.
The compound performs especially well during long descents where braking systems are exposed to intense heat. Compared to organic pads, sintered pads offer improved durability and consistent performance in harsh conditions.
Advantages
- Excellent heat resistance
- High durability and wear resistance
- Consistent performance during long descents
- Performs well in wet and muddy conditions
- Ideal for heavy braking applications
Disadvantages
- Slower initial bite compared to organic pads
- More braking noise
- Less modulation and softer feel compared to organic compounds
Recommended Use
The Hope E4 Sintered brake pads are ideal for riders who frequently ride in demanding conditions, including muddy trails, mountainous terrain, downhill, and enduro.
They are especially suitable when strong braking performance and durability are required over long descents and in challenging weather conditions.
Compatibility
Compatible with:
- Hope Tech 3 E4 brakes
- Hope Race E4 brakes
