Fleet Metlok Product Line Details

Bendix Fleet Metlok is the brand’s severe-duty brake pad line for trucks and fleet service. The semi-metallic SDR formulation is aimed at vehicles that see frequent stops, heavier loads, and repeated braking demand, making it a strong match for commercial and pursuit-oriented use where stable pedal feel and dependable friction matter.

Detailed Description

The Bendix Friction MKD149FM is a semi-metallic disc brake pad set designed for a broad range of older full-size trucks, vans, and chassis-cab platforms. It covers applications such as Chevrolet C30, Chevrolet P30, GMC G3500, GMC P3500, and Dodge W250/W350 models, with fitment across front and rear positions depending on the vehicle configuration. This part number is also a relevant search match for Bendix MKD149FM brake pads used on Chevrolet and GMC fleet platforms from 1970 through 1999.

Burnishing strips help simplify the initial brake-in process, while anti-noise shims are used to support quieter operation. The friction material is formulated for severe-duty braking, making it suitable for vehicles that regularly carry loads, tow, or operate in stop-and-go service.

What It Helps Address

• Brake fade during repeated heavy stops
• Noise from pad-to-caliper contact
• Uneven initial pad bedding after installation
• Reduced braking confidence on fleet and work-duty vehicles
• Wear concerns in severe-duty service cycles
