Centric 106.00080 Disc Brake Pad Set - Front or Rear

Centric Posi-Quiet Brake Pads for Corvette and Camaro

Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Set 106.00080 is built for drivers who want consistent braking feel, controlled wear, and reduced noise. It uses an OE-style positive molding process to help maintain even friction density across the pad surface.

Compatible With 1963-1982 Chevrolet Corvette front and rear brake applications, and 1969 Chevrolet Camaro front and rear brake applications, this Centric brake pad set is a direct-fit option for classic Chevrolet disc brake service. Part number 106.00080 is also a useful reference when cross-shopping replacement pads for the same application.

Key Features

• Semi-metallic friction material for dependable stopping performance
• Positive molded construction for consistent density and wear characteristics
• Precision-cut or shaved backing plates for caliper fitment
• Mechanically attached shims to help reduce vibration-related noise
• Scorched friction surface to remove impurities and speed initial break-in
• Asbestos-free friction formulation
• Mounting hardware and pad shims included
• Prepared for applications without a pad wear sensor

Product Line Details

Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear brake pads are part of Centric’s Posi-Quiet line, which focuses on stable friction performance and noise control. The line uses manufacturing details such as molded friction material, attached shims, and pre-burnishing treatment to support consistent pedal response and quieter operation over time.

Detailed Description

Centric 106.00080 is a disc brake pad set engineered for classic Chevrolet disc brake systems where fit, noise control, and wear consistency matter. The semi-metallic friction compound is paired with integrally molded attachment, pad shims, and included mounting hardware to support proper caliper fitment and stable braking behavior. The pad dimensions measure 75.8 mm in height, 157.8 mm in width, and 12.8 mm in overall thickness.

This part cross-references Wagner Brake MX8 for the same application. If you are servicing a Chevrolet Corvette or Chevrolet Camaro and need a direct replacement for front or rear disc brake pad service, Centric Posi-Quiet 106.00080 is a practical OE-style choice.

What It Helps Address

• Brake squeal caused by pad vibration
• Uneven pad wear from inconsistent friction density
• Initial brake fade during pad break-in
• Fitment issues related to backing plate shape
• Noise and vibration complaints during everyday driving

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor condition, caliper hardware, and pad abutment surfaces before installation. Clean the caliper bracket contact points, confirm the shims seat correctly, and follow the recommended bedding procedure after installation. This pad set does not use a wear sensor, so inspect pad thickness during routine brake service.

Quality Assurance

Centric manufactures the Posi-Quiet line using an OE-style positive molding process to promote uniform friction material density. The pads are also scorched to help remove impurities and accelerate break-in, while the attached shims and precision backing plates support quieter operation.
