Fritschi Brakes

Replacement brakes might be necessary if you move your bindings to a ski with a different width. You also might misplace your Vipec brakes since they are easily removable, a handy feature. See below for some various brake options.

Vipec/Tecton Brakes – Also known as Diamir Tech Brakes, these are replacement brakes for the Fritschi Vipec, Vipec EVO, and Tecton bindings. They are available in several widths, starting with 80mm for skinny skis and ending with 120mm for fatties. They are attached with brake plate kits that ship with the bindings or with replacements kits found here. Attachment plate kits are not included, despite the photo showing them.

Question from Tim

 

A friend is selling me his Fritche tectron 12 -110 mm bindings un-used. I have Rossignol soul 7s which are about 103mm at the waist. This should mean that the 110mm brakes are right but they seem way too wide - see image attached. Is your 110mm binding 7" wide at the widest point like the one in the photo?

Hi Tim, the arms are held closer together when you install them.

Question from Doug

 

Are the Vipec and Tecton brakes interchangeable? For a ski with 104 mm waist- which size is correct?

Answer from Trace Leches

 

Hey Doug! Yup, they're the same attachment! I'd go with 110mm brake!

Question from Paul L

 

What size brake would you recommend for a Fischer Hannibal with a 94 waist? I have read the 95 is a very tight 95? Thanks

Answer from Trace Leches

 

Hey Paul. We just measured the inside of the 95 brake shoulder width (the narrowest point) at 97mm, so if you don't have a sloping sidewall then there's a small chance you'll have to bend it out, but it should clear just fine.

Question from Fedor Farberov

 

Hello,

I’m looking for FRITSCHI VIPEC BRAKES size 100 mm for black VIPEC bindings (model 2015-16).

However brakes on the picture on this page are not for Vipec bindings. These brakes are for different FRITSCHI bindings: Eagle and Freeride. Also specification of the brakes sizes is different compare to what Diamir has on their website. They say that brakes for Vipec bindings have the following sizes: 80 / 90 / 100 / 115 mm. But sizes on your site are 95 and 108 mm. Please clarify what kind of Fritschi brakes do you have?

Thank you,
Fedor

Hi Fedor, thanks for pointing out the issue with our photo. It should now correctly show the Vipec brakes. Black Diamond, who distributes Fritschi in North America, lists the maximum ski size the brakes will fit which is larger than the spec sizes that Fritschi uses. The 100 is the same as the 108.
