Product Details

Overview & Technology

Avid Pad Pin Kit (11.5015.036.000) replaces the small but critical parts that keep your disc pads locked in place. This kit is an OEM-compatible service item designed to the same fit and tolerances as factory hardware used on Avid/SRAM Code, Guide and Elixir family brakes (SRAM Model ID: DB-SPP-A0). Construction and corrosion resistance: the kit centers on a precision-formed stainless steel retention pin and a heat-treated spring clip engineered to resist stretching and fatigue. The metal surfaces feature a corrosion-resistant finish for long life in wet and muddy mountain conditions, while tight manufacturing tolerances ensure consistent pad alignment and quiet braking.

Key Features & Benefits

Small parts, big impact. Worn or bent pins and fatigued clips cause rattles, pad misalignment and uneven wear. Replacing the pin and clip restores the original clamping action and keeps pads stable under hard braking. • OEM fit: Direct replacement for Avid/SRAM Code, Guide and Elixir brakes — part number 11.5015.036.000. • Stainless steel pin: Corrosion-resistant for long life and consistent retention in wet conditions. • Heat-treated spring clip: Maintains tension to prevent pad movement and rattling. • Lightweight and compact: Adds virtually no weight (0.01 lb) and ships in a small footprint.

Fit, Compatibility & Specifications

This pad pin kit is listed as Avid 11.5015.036.000 and cross-referenced to SRAM Model ID DB-SPP-A0. It's compatible with Avid/SRAM Code and Guide families and many Elixir variants that use the same retention system. Always double-check your brake model and OEM part numbers before ordering. Shipping & part details: Manufacturer part #: 11.5015.036.000. Shipping dimensions 4.5" x 4.2" x 0.1" and weight 0.01 lb — an easy spare to carry in a tool roll or parts drawer.

Who This Is For

Trail riders, enduro racers and home mechanics who run Avid or SRAM brakes will appreciate keeping this inexpensive service kit on hand. It’s ideal for anyone who performs regular brake maintenance, swaps pads frequently for race-day setups, or wants to eliminate pad rattle and secure their braking system after heavy use. Mechanics and shop techs also benefit from having multiple kits in the drawer for quick brake rebuilds and customer service — a small part that saves time and prevents return visits for noisy or misaligned brakes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this pin kit fit my Code or Guide brakes?

Yes — this kit is an OEM-compatible replacement for Avid/SRAM Code and Guide brake families and many Elixir variants that share the same retention system. Confirm your brake's service parts list or compare the manufacturer part number (11.5015.036.000) to be sure.

What exactly is included in the kit?

The pad pin kit supplies the retention pin and the spring clip used to hold the pads in the caliper. These are the parts most commonly replaced when the pin is bent, corroded or the clip loses tension.

How difficult is installation?

Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable changing brake pads. Remove the old pin and clip, swap pads, then press the new pin through the pad tabs and secure the clip. Use the manufacturer's recommended tools and check pad alignment before riding.

Do I need any special grease or torque specs?

No special torque is required for a simple pin and clip. Light, high-temperature anti-seize or a smear of waterproof grease on the pin can help prevent corrosion and ease future removal, but avoid contaminating the pad braking surface.

Can I reuse my old pin clip?

Reusing an old clip is not recommended. Spring clips can lose tension over time; replacing both the pin and clip together ensures secure pad retention and prevents noise or pad movement.

Buying Guide

When buying brake hardware, prioritize OEM or OEM-compatible parts that match your brake family's service parts list. A correct-fit retention pin and spring clip restore original pad alignment and tension — critical for consistent braking performance and safety. Keep a small stock of pin kits if you ride in muddy, salty, or heavily-used conditions; replacing worn pins and clips during routine pad changes is inexpensive insurance against noise, uneven wear, or pad drop-outs on the trail.
