Product Line Details

Centric PQ PRO Disc Brake Pad Sets are part of Centric’s brake friction line focused on professional repair needs. The PQ PRO series combines ceramic friction technology with OE-style manufacturing methods to address common service concerns such as brake fade, weak initial response, noise, and high operating temperatures. For Toyota T100 front brake service, 500.06040 provides a direct-fit pad option built around those requirements.

Detailed Description

This Centric PQ PRO brake pad set is engineered for front axle use on the Toyota T100 in model years 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1998. The pads measure 133.000 mm wide, 52.800 mm high, and 16.400 mm thick, with ceramic friction material and shims included for a more controlled brake feel. The set also includes Centric’s Opti-Check Early Warning System, which gives a clear visual indication of pad service life. If you are searching for Toyota T100 front disc brake pads, Centric 500.06040 is a fitment-specific option for these applications.

What It Helps Address

• Brake fade during repeated stops or higher-temperature operation
• Weak braking response at the pedal
• Brake noise and vibration from worn front pads
• Uneven or difficult-to-read pad wear during inspection
• Front brake service on Toyota T100 models with the listed fitment

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor condition, caliper operation, and pad abutment surfaces before installation. Clean the bracket contact points, follow proper bedding-in procedures after installation, and confirm fitment against the vehicle’s brake configuration. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286) for the same application.
