are 2008 up oem rear HD brake pads synthered?

Trying to determine if synthered, semi synthered?

I've not seen any info to factually answer your question but I think they would be considered semi-sintered.

I think he may be wanting to say sintered. But just a guess. Sintered pads have metallic particles infused in the compound of the pads.
