I've had the stainless disc setup for about four years on my old school S-25 Savage with original pads. Never had the pads rip off. It's a HPI kit, maybe the ebay kits come with poor quality adhesive on the pads or something? The only thing I noticed a few months back (when upgrading the original trans case to the Savage X-style for easier access to my 3-speed) is that the steel discs have some light grooving in them, but like I said, they're four years old.

I might go to the fiber discs too sometime down the road on my next teardown, but I've been happy with the stainless dual disc setup on mine.

HTH...

Hardened steel has a higher amount of carbon then normal steel due to the heat treating process it is given, making it much "harder" than non heat treated steel. Therefore it will completly wear away at your CB.

so therefore a higher better steel spur would demolish my stock cb

yea i bought mine from ebay they ripped so i bought btter 1s and those to ripped?
can it be the way i was "suppose to glue them"
by that i mean i just put the brake pads with out putting them together..
it was 1 of those brake pad kit with 4 pads
 
Shoe goo works the best for glueing down the HPI pads.


And on the integy spurs, they are holding up pretty well. I have a 47t and a 50t spur from Integy.
