The DuraGo BP623C disc brake pad set offers reliable stopping power for select Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models. Designed with ceramic friction material and mechanical pad wear sensors, these brake pads provide consistent performance and enhanced safety on the road.

• Ceramic friction material for quieter braking and reduced dust
• Slotted design to improve heat dissipation and reduce brake fade
• Mechanical pad wear sensor included for timely maintenance alerts
• Chamfered edges and bonded friction material for smooth engagement
• Pad shims included to minimize noise and vibration
• Iron backing plates for durability and structural integrity

Technical Details and Specifications

The DuraGo BP623C brake pads feature an outer pad friction material thickness of 0.44 inches (11.1 mm) and an inner pad thickness of 0.49 inches (12.4 mm), ensuring ample material for extended service life. The pads include slotted surfaces to help dissipate heat during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions. Chamfered edges contribute to quieter operation and smoother pad-to-rotor contact. The friction material is bonded securely to iron backing plates with a thickness of 0.19 inches, providing structural strength and consistent braking performance. Mechanical pad wear sensors are integrated to alert drivers when replacement is necessary, helping maintain optimal brake function. Pad shims are included to reduce noise and vibration, though mounting hardware and abutment clips are not part of this set.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This disc brake pad set is compatible with a range of General Motors vehicles, including Buick models like the LeSabre and Park Avenue, Cadillac models such as the DeVille, Eldorado, and Seville, Chevrolet vehicles including the Camaro and Lumina APV, Oldsmobile 88 and 98, as well as Pontiac Firebird, Bonneville, Riviera, Silhouette, and Trans Sport. The DuraGo BP623C is designed to meet the braking requirements of these specific models, ensuring proper fit and function.

Common Issues Addressed by DuraGo BP623C Brake Pads

• Brake noise and vibration caused by worn or incompatible pads
• Reduced braking efficiency due to heat buildup and fade
• Premature pad wear without timely replacement alerts
• Excessive brake dust accumulation on wheels
• Uneven pad wear leading to rotor damage

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BP623C disc brake pads, ensure the mechanical wear sensors are properly connected to maintain accurate wear monitoring. Although mounting hardware is not included, verify that existing hardware is in good condition or replace as needed. Clean the caliper and rotor surfaces before installation to promote even pad contact. Use the included pad shims to reduce noise and vibration. It is recommended to inspect rotors for wear or damage and resurface or replace if necessary to optimize braking performance.
