This particular set, part number 103.13970, features ceramic friction material that offers stable braking performance with less noise and dust compared to semi-metallic pads. The friction material is integrally molded to the backing plate, enhancing pad durability and consistent wear. Two of the pads come equipped with a pad wear sensor, allowing for early detection of pad wear and timely replacement. Pad shims are included to reduce noise and vibration during braking. This set does not include mounting hardware, so existing hardware should be inspected and replaced if necessary. The pads measure approximately 130 mm in width and 58 mm in height, with an overall thickness of 16.9 mm, suitable for select Hyundai Elantra and Kia Forte models including Forte5 and Forte Koup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake pad set is compatible with the following vehicles:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHyundai Elantra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKia Forte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKia Forte5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKia Forte Koup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is designed to replace worn or damaged front disc brake pads, restoring braking efficiency and safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by This Brake Pad Set\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced braking performance due to worn pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake noise and vibration caused by missing or damaged shims\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake dust accumulation on wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelayed pad wear detection without sensor alerts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven pad wear affecting braking consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspect existing mounting hardware; replace if worn as hardware is not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure proper connection of pad wear sensors during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean caliper and rotor surfaces before installing new pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollow vehicle manufacturer torque specifications for caliper bolts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerform a bed-in procedure after installation to optimize pad performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCentric provides quality assurance through precise manufacturing standards for the C-TEK Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Sets.
