Detailed Product Features and Specifications

The Centric C-TEK Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Sets 103.15060 utilize ceramic friction material composition, which provides stable friction performance and reduced brake dust compared to semi-metallic pads. The friction material is integrally molded to the backing plate, enhancing pad durability and consistent wear. This set includes four pads, with two pads equipped with one wear sensor to monitor pad life and alert drivers when replacement is needed.

Pad shims are included to minimize noise and vibration during braking. The pads are drilled for spreader springs, which help maintain proper pad positioning and reduce rattle. Outer and inner pad dimensions are consistent, with an overall thickness of 0.681 inches (17.3 mm), height of 2.295 inches (58.3 mm), and width of 5.858 inches (148.8 mm). Mounting hardware is not included with this set, so ensure compatibility with existing hardware or purchase separately if needed.
