Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear Brake Pads

Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Sets are built for consistent braking performance, even wear, and reduced noise. Part number 106.02240 uses a semi-metallic friction formula with OE-style positive molding, making it a practical choice for drivers looking for a direct replacement brake pad set for select Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury applications.

The Posi-Quiet line focuses on fit, finish, and brake feel. Precision-cut or shaved backing plates, mechanically attached shims, and a scorching process help support quieter operation and faster break-in. If you are searching for Centric 106.02240 brake pads for Ford F-150, Lincoln Mark VIII, or Mercury applications, this set is built around those service needs.

Product Details

Centric engineered the Posi-Quiet Extended Wear line to address common brake pad complaints such as vibration and noise. The positive molding process compresses the friction material under high pressure so the pad wears more evenly over time. For service work on Ford F-150 brake pad replacement, Lincoln Mark VIII front brake service, or Mercury disc brake maintenance, 106.02240 provides a straightforward OE-style solution with the fitment details needed for a clean install.

This part cross-references Wagner Brake SX224 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Brake noise caused by pad vibration
• Uneven pad wear from inconsistent friction density
• Longer break-in time after brake service
• Poor caliper fitment from backing plate variation
• Brake pedal feel changes related to worn disc pads

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor condition, caliper hardware, and pad abutment surfaces before installation. Clean the caliper bracket contact points, confirm shim placement, and follow the vehicle service procedure for pad bedding after installation. Use the included hardware only where the application calls for it, and confirm the part number 106.02240 against the vehicle’s brake configuration before ordering.

Quality Assurance

Centric manufactures the Posi-Quiet line using OE-style positive molding and added scorching to improve consistency and reduce impurities in the friction material. The design also uses prepared backing plates and shims to support proper fitment and quieter operation. Part number 106.02240 is built as a direct replacement disc brake pad set for the listed applications.
