Product Details

The ADVICS Ultra-Premium OE Replacement line focuses on original-equipment-style braking performance for drivers who want a direct replacement pad set with refined pedal feel. AD1612 uses approved ceramic friction material and OE-level shim construction to help maintain stable braking under everyday and heavy-duty use. The slotted design, chamfered edges, and multi-layer shim setup are intended to support smoother engagement and reduced vibration on rear brake systems for the Ford Explorer, Ford Flex, Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and Lincoln MKT.

This part cross-references Akebono ProACT ACT1612 and Raybestos Brakes EHT1612H for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Squealing or brake noise from worn rear pads
• Excessive brake dust buildup on wheels
• Vibration or chatter during braking
• Reduced stopping response from worn friction material
• Uneven pad wear on rear disc brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm rear fitment by year, model, and brake configuration before installation. Inspect rotors, calipers, and slide hardware for wear or damage, and replace any worn components as needed. Clean the caliper bracket and pad contact points thoroughly so the shims and backing plates seat correctly. After installation, follow the vehicle manufacturer’s bedding procedure to help establish proper pad transfer.
