Product Details and Specifications

The AD1169A disc brake pad set features ceramic friction material that provides stable braking performance with reduced dust and noise compared to semi-metallic alternatives. The pads are slotted to help dissipate heat and gases generated during braking, which can improve pad life and reduce brake fade. Chamfered edges further contribute to quieter operation by reducing vibration. The backing plates are made from fine blank steel, ensuring structural integrity and proper fitment. Mechanical pad wear sensors are integrated to alert drivers when pad replacement is necessary, helping maintain safe braking conditions. The set includes four pads with multi-layer black shims to reduce noise and vibration during braking.
