September 20, 201213 yr Someone know where to buy in Khon Kaen? I am going to change my front brake pads. Edited September 20, 201213 yr by dagling
September 20, 201213 yr I have done a few brake jobs but never heard of copper paste? Is this for a super high end type bike....In the usa we usually get a tube of quieting lube included with the pads. This goes between the pad a piston. What does copper paste due exactly?
September 20, 201213 yr The copper paste is a high temp grease. Stops things seizing up and helps with noise caused by vibration. it goes between the oad abd the shims i did not know that either, but google did.
September 21, 201213 yr Go to Cockpit or B-Quick and ask. If Thai no so good go with pictures. Reasonable chance they have something.
September 21, 201213 yr To the OP. The more common name / acronym is Anti-Seize. Even some nickel anti-seize grease have a copper base
September 21, 201213 yr It does not have to be copper grease. Any good heavy grease will work. I like synthetic grease, but it can be harder to find. And most modern brake pads are made in a way to reduce the friction and eliminate squealing from the contact with the caliper pistons. I have occassionaly not used grease when changing brake pads, and didn't have any squealing problems, at least not from the brakes.
September 23, 201213 yr I buy my cooper past in Germany und bringto here at last flight in Thailand you can buy at the german distributor Würth Pongsayam Charoensri Chief Operating Officer Wuerth Thailand Co.,Ltd. 144 Sukhontasawad Rd. Ladprao Bangkok 10230 T : +66 2 907 8880-7 F : +66 2 907 8877-8 M : + 66 81 919 8690 say greetings from Karl Bangkapi
September 23, 201213 yr I thought you meant rubber grease. I have been using it for years when fitting new seals to the brake pistons, and other parts. It's castor oil based grease it won't cause problems for the brake fluid.
September 23, 201213 yr ^^ No, he means "Kupferpaste" (copper paste, if you translate it to english) In Germany, we use it to avoid "squealing" or seizure problems. Here are some examples of application. I usually buy a few tubes in Germany too and bring them back to TH. But you can buy them at the "Hardwarehouse" too. Edited September 23, 201213 yr by roban
