DuraGo BP1275C Disc Brake Pad Set - Rear

Overview of DuraGo BP1275C Disc Brake Pad Set

The DuraGo BP1275C disc brake pad set is engineered for reliable braking performance on select Chevrolet, GMC, Pontiac, Saturn, and Suzuki models. Designed with ceramic friction material and mechanical pad wear sensors, this set offers consistent stopping power and durability for vehicles like the Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain.

• Ceramic friction material for smooth, quiet braking
• Includes mechanical pad wear sensors for timely maintenance alerts
• Slotted and chamfered edges to reduce noise and improve pad bedding
• Pad shims included to minimize vibration
• Iron backing plates with bonded friction material for structural integrity

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

The DuraGo BP1275C brake pads feature a friction material thickness of 8.9 mm on both inner and outer pads, ensuring long-lasting wear. The ceramic composition provides stable friction performance and reduced brake dust compared to semi-metallic pads. Slotted design enhances heat dissipation and helps prevent brake fade during extended use. Chamfered edges reduce noise and improve pad engagement with the rotor. The iron backing plates are 6.1 mm thick on the inner pads and 6.1 mm on the outer pads, bonded securely to the friction material for durability. Mechanical pad wear sensors are included to alert drivers when replacement is needed, helping maintain safe braking conditions. Pad shims are also included to reduce vibration and noise during braking. This set does not include mounting hardware or abutment clips, so verify compatibility with your vehicle’s existing components.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This disc brake pad set is compatible with a range of vehicles, including Chevrolet Captiva Sport, Equinox, GMC Terrain, Pontiac Torrent, Saturn Vue, and Suzuki XL-7. The DuraGo BP1275C is designed to meet the braking requirements of these models, providing a direct replacement for original equipment pads.

Common Issues Addressed by DuraGo BP1275C Brake Pads

• Brake noise and vibration due to worn or uneven pads
• Reduced braking performance from degraded friction material
• Brake fade caused by overheating during extended stops
• Premature pad wear without wear sensor alerts
• Excessive brake dust accumulation on wheels

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BP1275C brake pads, ensure the mechanical wear sensors are properly connected to maintain accurate wear monitoring. Clean the caliper and rotor surfaces before installation to prevent uneven pad wear. Since mounting hardware and abutment clips are not included, inspect existing components for wear and replace if necessary. Properly torque all fasteners to manufacturer specifications and perform a brake system test after installation to confirm correct operation.
