Neomech Front & Rear Brake Pads for Can-Am Defender & Traxter HD10–HD7 (2016–2023), Semi‑Metal with Stainless Backing

Neomech front and rear brake pads are a complete OEM-replacement kit engineered to restore strong, consistent stopping power for Can-Am Defender and Traxter HD-series models from 2016–2023.

This brake pad set is built to fit a range of Can-Am Defender and Traxter HD models (HD10, HD9, HD8, HD7 and compatible 2-door 4x4 variations) and replaces the factory pads without special modification. The pads combine semi-metal friction material with a stainless-steel backing plate and corrosion-resistant coating for long service life and quieter operation. Below you’ll find concise answers to common buyer questions plus specific fit and performance details to help you decide.

Will these pads fit my Can-Am Defender or Traxter?

These kits are manufactured to match the fit and mounting points of the listed Can-Am models from 2016 through 2022 (with broader compatibility noted to 2023 in some model years). They are not compatible with Max, Pro, HD5 edition, or 6x6 edition variants unless explicitly specified in your vehicle’s parts list.

• Fits: Defender HD10, HD9, HD8, HD7 models 2016–2022 (2-door 4x4 versions included)
• Fits: Traxter HD10, HD9, HD8, HD7 models 2016–2022 (excluding Max, Pro, HD5)
• OEM cross-reference: 715900379, 715900380, 715900381, 715900382
• Package: four sets—front and rear brake pad replacement kits included

How do these brake pads perform under heavy use?

The pads use a semi-metal, non-asbestos friction compound with brass content for stable braking performance at elevated temperatures. A stainless-steel backplate and a corrosion-resistant black coating help prevent deformation and rust, while engineered materials reduce pad dust and rotor wear.

• High-temperature resistance for sustained braking
• Abrasion-resistant formula minimizes pad and rotor wear
• Anti-rattle design and secure bonding prevent pad separation
• Surface coating resists corrosion in wet or salty conditions

What are the installation and maintenance considerations?

Installation follows standard brake-pad replacement procedures for Can-Am models—remove calipers, swap pads, and reassemble. No specialty tools are required beyond typical hand tools; however, checking rotor condition and caliper hardware is recommended to ensure even wear and optimal performance.

• Replace pads in axle pairs for balanced braking
• Inspect rotors and hardware; resurface or replace if worn
• Torque caliper fasteners to manufacturer specifications after install
• Break in new pads with gradual stops to bed pads into rotors

What materials and safety features are used in these pads?

The pad compound is a semi-metal, non-asbestos blend that includes brass for friction stability, while the backplate is stainless steel to resist bending and heat. A durable black spray coating on the outer layer protects against corrosion and helps the pads remain rattle-free during operation.

• Semi-metal friction material for consistent stopping power
• Non-asbestos formulation to meet modern safety standards
• Stainless-steel backplate for rigidity and heat handling
• Corrosion-resistant coating extends service life

Who is this for: This Neomech brake pad kit is aimed at owners of Can-Am Defender and Traxter HD-series UTVs who need a direct-fit replacement for worn or noisy pads and want improved longevity, reduced rotor wear, and reliable braking in recreational, farm, or work settings. Verify your vehicle’s model and year against the fit list and OEM numbers before ordering, and contact the seller with fitment questions if anything is unclear.
