Both inner and outer pads have a friction material thickness of 11.3 mm (0.44 inches), with an overall pad thickness of 17.9 mm (0.7 inches). The pads include chamfered edges and a slotted surface to enhance braking efficiency and reduce noise. The iron backing plates are bonded to the friction material, providing structural integrity and consistent wear. Pad shims are included to help reduce vibration and noise during operation. This set does not include pad wear sensors, mounting hardware, or abutment clips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake pad set is compatible with the following vehicles:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord Flex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLincoln MKS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLincoln MKT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord Taurus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen replacing brake pads on these models, the DuraGo BP1376C provides a direct fit and meets OEM specifications for braking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by DuraGo BP1376C Brake Pads\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake noise and vibration caused by worn or uneven pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced braking efficiency due to glazed or damaged friction material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake fade from excessive heat during prolonged braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven pad wear leading to inconsistent stopping power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake dust accumulation affecting wheel appearance and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor optimal performance, ensure the brake rotors are inspected and resurfaced or replaced if necessary before installing the DuraGo BP1376C pads. Clean the caliper and mounting surfaces thoroughly and apply brake lubricant to contact points as recommended. Since mounting hardware is not included, reuse existing hardware if in good condition or replace as needed. Verify proper pad orientation, especially noting the slotted and chamfered edges for correct installation. Always follow vehicle manufacturer torque specifications when tightening caliper bolts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuraGo brake pads are manufactured to meet or exceed industry standards for safety and performance.
