## Summary description

Semi-metallic replacement brake pads Clarks CLA-VRS852 compatible with Shimano calipers and models listed (XTR M985, XT M785, SLX M666, Deore M615), Alfine R785, FSA K-Force and Clarks M2. Designed as direct-fit disc brake pads offering balanced braking performance, durability and heat resistance for mountain and off-road cycling. Suitable for riders seeking dependable stopping power and longer pad life.

## Long description

Clarks semi-metallic brake pads set CLA-VRS852 is a direct-fit replacement designed for a range of Shimano calipers and compatible systems. These semi-metallic pads combine a blended friction material and a steel-backed carrier to deliver consistent stopping power, improved heat dissipation and extended wear life compared with organic-only compounds. Intended for mountain and off-road use, the pads are sized and shaped to fit the listed caliper families and provide predictable modulation across a variety of riding conditions.
Advantages
The semi-metallic compound offers a balance between braking power and durability, with enhanced resistance to fade under sustained braking and better performance in wet and muddy conditions. Steel-backed construction stabilizes pad shape at high temperatures and supports uniform pad wear. As direct-fit replacements, these pads allow straightforward installation without modifications and maintain original caliper geometry for reliable braking feel.
Suitable for
Mountain biking and trail riding where robust braking and heat control are required
All-weather commuting and off-road use with mixed wet/dry conditions
Replacement maintenance to restore original braking performance
Key specifications
Friction material: semi-metallic blend for balanced power and durability
Backing plate: steel-backed carrier for thermal stability
Compatibility: designed to fit the specified series of Shimano-style calipers and compatible systems
Intended use: mountain, off-road and all-weather riding
Performance characteristics: improved heat resistance and reduced pad fade under sustained braking
How to use
Replace worn pads by removing the wheel and caliper access pins according to the bicycle manufacturer’s service instructions, then extract the old pads and spring clip. Install the new Clarks semi-metallic pads into the caliper so the friction surface faces the rotor and the backing plate seats correctly against the piston. Re-fit the spring clip and retaining pin, torque any fasteners to the manufacturer’s specification, and realign the caliper if necessary. After installation, perform a few gentle brake applications to bed the pads and check for proper clearance and noise before regular riding.
Usage recommendations
Use these semi-metallic pads where a balance of stopping power and durability is desired. Inspect pad thickness regularly and replace before the friction material reaches the minimum service limit. For best performance, keep rotors clean and avoid contamination from lubricants or oils; if contamination occurs, clean or replace affected components as appropriate.
