The SBS 952HS is a premium metallic sintered brake pad designed by Scandinavian Brake Systems (SBS) under their Street Excel HS series. Specifically engineered for heavy-duty touring machinery, the 952HS compound delivers high thermal stability, immediate stopping power, and exceptional lever feel required to haul down flagship heavyweight tourers.Part number 952HS caters directly to the front braking systems of modern Honda GL1800 Goldwing models, engineered to meet the demands of aggressive highway touring, full-load two-up riding, and tight mountain passes.A fully loaded Honda GL1800 Goldwing—complete with passenger, luggage, and a full tank of fuel—can easily tip the scales at well over 500 kg (1,100 lbs). Bringing a machine of this mass down to a complete stop from highway speeds places immense kinetic energy stress on the front brake calipers and rotors.SBS integrates patented NUCAP Retention System (NRS) technology. The steel backing plate features raised matrix hooks that physically interlock with the sintered friction pad. This eliminates any risk of pad shear or delamination, even when subjecting the brakes to sustained emergency stopping heat.
