The TP series brake pads deliver superior and consistent braking performance during high-intensity usage and in challenging environments. They are suitable for enduro, downhill (DH), E-bike, and other models or activities that demand prolonged and intense braking.

Long descents are where the LEWIS TP series is meant to work. These sintered metallic pads are aimed at enduro, downhill and E-bike riding, where braking is prolonged and intense.
Find the TP code for your caliper first
TP-30 goes with LEWIS LV2, BB2, SL and SLR brakes, TP-37 with LV4, LH4 and LHP-S4, and TP-40 with LHT and LHP-U4. Section width steps from 30mm to 36.9mm to 40mm between those groups, so identify the brake model before anything else and let it decide the TP code.
What a sintered metallic compound asks of you
As a general rule, riders pick sintered metallic compounds for sustained heat and rough conditions, and accept that they can be louder than softer compounds. Treat that as a guide to the compound type rather than a measured result for TP pads, and weigh it against how often you brake for minutes at a time.
Riding that points away from TP pads
If most of your braking is short and at low speed, as in XC or street trials, compare the LEWIS LP resin series before settling on TP. High-speed or long-distance braking with less noise is the stated territory of the LEWIS VP carbon ceramic series, so TP pads make the most sense when hard, sustained stops are the main job.
- Enduro bike on a LEWIS LV4 or LH4: look at TP-37.
- LEWIS LV2, BB2, SL or SLR brake: look at TP-30.
- LEWIS LHT or LHP-U4 brake: look at TP-40, the 40mm pad.
- Oil or brake fluid on old pads: clean the rotor too, since a TP pad swap alone will not fix contamination.
- New TP pads: plan a controlled bed-in before a long descent, as is usual for disc pads.
Check your brake model against the three TP codes before you buy, and on any other brake, compare pad shape rather than assuming a fit.
