Fleet Metlok Product Line

The Fleet Metlok Semi-Metallic SDR line is aimed at severe-duty rear brake service. It focuses on controlled friction response, durability under repeated stops, and fitment coverage for work-duty trucks, fleet vehicles, and pursuit applications. If you need a rear pad set for demanding use, Bendix Friction MKD792SDFM is part of that application-focused lineup.

Detailed Description

Bendix Friction MKD792SDFM is a rear disc brake pad set formulated for vehicles that operate under heavier braking loads and frequent stop-and-go conditions. The semi-metallic SDR friction material is intended for extreme braking environments, while the included anti-noise shims and burnishing strips support smoother initial operation and quieter service. This part is listed for rear applications on models such as 2000-2001 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2000-2001 GMC Yukon, 2004-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, and 2005-2006 GMC Sierra 1500, along with additional Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC coverage.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues It Can Address

• Rear brake fade during repeated heavy stops
• Noise from worn or unstable pad material
• Uneven braking feel in severe-duty service
• Reduced stopping consistency on fleet and work trucks
• Brake-in concerns after pad replacement

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear fitment by year, make, model, and brake configuration before ordering. This application includes specific notes such as single piston calipers, 8-stud rotors, GM brake code J55, and exclusions for heavy-duty brake packages on certain vehicles. Some applications also note separate hardware kit requirements, so confirm the exact brake setup on the vehicle before installation. Clean the caliper bracket and rotor surfaces, apply the supplied brake lubricant where specified, and follow proper burnishing procedures after installation.
