Detailed Description

The Bendix Friction SBM840A brake pad set is engineered as an OE-style replacement for drivers who want a direct-fit pad solution for the Saab 9-5. The semi-metallic construction is paired with a multi-layer shim and burnishing strips where available, giving this part a practical balance of friction material, noise control, and bedding support. As part of the Stop Semi-Metallic product line, SBM840A reflects Bendix’s focus on broad brake coverage and OE specification alignment.

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

What It Is Used For

  • Replacing worn front brake pads on the Saab 9-5.
  • Restoring braking response when pad material is near the wear limit.
  • Addressing brake noise associated with aged or uneven pad surfaces.
  • Supporting consistent pedal feel after brake service.

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2006-2009 Saab 9-5, front, with 308mm front rotors. Verify rotor size and pad shape before installation. Hardware is not included for this application, so confirm the existing brake hardware condition during service. Follow standard brake bedding procedures after installation to help the pads seat properly.
