About the C-TEK Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Sets Line

The C-TEK Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Sets by Centric are designed to offer a balance of performance and durability using ceramic friction material. This product line focuses on providing quieter braking with less dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. The integrally molded friction material and inclusion of pad shims help maintain consistent contact and reduce noise, making it suitable for daily driving conditions and moderate performance needs.

Product Details and Specifications

This disc brake pad set includes four pads, two of which come equipped with one wear sensor to alert drivers when pad replacement is necessary. The ceramic friction material composition ensures stable friction performance and longer pad life. The pads are drilled for spreader springs, which help maintain proper pad positioning and reduce uneven wear. While mounting hardware is not included, the set comes with pad shims to minimize vibration and noise during braking. The overall weight of the set is approximately 4.8 lbs (2.18 kgs), making it a direct replacement for the Toyota Venza’s original equipment.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake pads on Toyota Venza
• Reducing brake noise and vibration during normal driving
