ADVICS Original Equipment Manufacturer Product Line

The ADVICS Original Equipment Manufacturer line focuses on delivering brake components engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications. The AD1095 disc brake pad set is part of this line, ensuring compatibility and performance that align with factory standards for vehicles such as the Ford Focus, Jaguar XF, and Volvo V50.

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

The AD1095 brake pads feature ceramic friction material composition, which provides stable friction performance and reduced dust generation compared to semi-metallic pads. The slotted design enhances heat dissipation during braking, helping to maintain consistent stopping power under demanding conditions. Mechanical pad wear sensors are integrated to alert drivers when pad replacement is necessary, supporting vehicle safety. The pads include multi-layer black shims that help reduce noise and vibration, while the fine blank steel backing plates offer structural integrity and resistance to corrosion. Both inner and outer pads measure 51.8 mm in height, 123.2 mm in width, and 15.4 mm in overall thickness, ensuring precise fitment for compatible vehicles.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

• Cadillac models including CTS and STS
• Chevrolet Cobalt and Solstice
• Ford Focus, Escape, EcoSport, and Transit Connect
• Jaguar XF, XJ, XJR, XK, and XKR
• Mazda 3 and 3 Sport
• Pontiac Solstice and G5
• Saab 9-3, 9-3X, and BLS
• Saturn Sky
• Volvo C30, C70, S40, V50, and Vanden Plas

Common Issues Addressed by AD1095 Brake Pads

• Brake fade caused by excessive heat during prolonged braking
• Uneven pad wear leading to reduced braking efficiency
• Brake noise and vibration due to poor shim or pad design
• Delayed pad wear indication without sensor integration
• Corrosion and structural degradation of backing plates

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the ADVICS AD1095 disc brake pads, ensure the mechanical pad wear sensors are properly connected to maintain accurate wear monitoring. The chamfered edges and slotted design require correct orientation to optimize performance and reduce noise. Although mounting hardware is not included, use OEM or compatible hardware to secure the pads. Verify pad thickness and dimensions against the vehicle’s specifications to confirm fitment.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

The ADVICS AD1095 disc brake pad set is manufactured to meet stringent quality standards consistent with the ADVICS Original Equipment Manufacturer line. The ceramic friction material and fine blank steel backing plates undergo rigorous testing to ensure durability and performance. Warranty coverage details should be confirmed with the product supplier or manufacturer documentation.
