About Centric Premium Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Sets
The Centric Premium Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Sets line is engineered to deliver consistent braking performance with semi-metallic friction material that is integrally molded to the backing plate. This design enhances pad durability and heat dissipation, making it suitable for performance-oriented vehicles like the Porsche 911 and 928. The inclusion of pad shims helps minimize noise and vibration, contributing to a smoother braking experience.
Product Details and Specifications
This disc brake pad set includes four pads, each with an outer and inner pad height of 2.980 inches (75.7 mm), width of 5.189 inches (131.8 mm), and overall thickness of 0.650 inches (16.5 mm). The pads weigh approximately 5.25 lbs (2.39 kgs) per set. While mounting hardware is not included, the pads are prepared for pad wear sensors, allowing for easy sensor installation if desired. The friction material is integrally molded to the backing plate, ensuring secure attachment and consistent performance.
Applications and Problem Solving
- Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake pads on Porsche 911 and 928
- Improves braking response and pedal feel
- Reduces brake noise and vibration with included pad shims
- Supports vehicles equipped with pad wear sensors (sensor installation required)
- Maintains consistent braking performance under varied driving conditions
Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure the brake system is clean and free of debris before installing the new pads. Since mounting hardware is not included, reuse existing hardware if in good condition or replace as necessary. Verify compatibility with your Porsche 911 or 928 model year before installation. If your vehicle uses pad wear sensors, install the sensors separately as these pads are prepared for sensor integration but do not include the sensors themselves.
Quality Assurance and Warranty
Centric Premium Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Sets are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit and performance. The semi-metallic friction material and integrally molded design contribute to reliable braking and pad longevity.
