Choosing the right brake pad directly affects stopping performance, pedal feel, noise level, and brake dust. As a trusted brake pad manufacturer and supplier in Malaysia, GAB develops multiple brake pad compounds to suit different driving styles—from daily street use to performance-oriented applications.
Why brake pad compound matters
Not all brake pads perform the same. The compound determines how the brake responds under heat, how much noise it produces, and how it feels during normal driving.
Metal-based pads offer stronger bite and better heat tolerance
Ceramic pads focus on smoother braking, lower noise, and reduced dust
Different compounds suit different vehicle weights and driving intensity
