The DuraGo BP797C disc brake pad set is engineered for reliable braking performance on select Chevrolet, Pontiac, 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 Aveo, Pontiac G3, and Suzuki Spark.

• 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 to minimize noise and vibration
• Pad shims included to ensure proper fit and reduce squeal
• Iron backing plates bonded to friction material for strength and stability

Detailed Product Features and Specifications

The DuraGo BP797C brake pads feature a friction material thickness of 10.8 mm on both inner and outer pads, providing ample material for extended service life. The ceramic composition helps maintain consistent friction levels while reducing brake dust accumulation. Slotted pads enhance cooling by allowing gases and debris to escape, which helps maintain braking efficiency under demanding conditions. Chamfered edges reduce noise and vibration during braking, contributing to a smoother driving experience. The mechanical pad wear sensor alerts drivers when pad replacement is necessary, helping to maintain safe braking performance. Although mounting hardware and abutment clips are not included, pad shims are provided to ensure proper installation and minimize noise. The iron backing plate bonded to the friction material offers durability and structural integrity.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This disc brake pad set is compatible with the following makes and models:

Installation Notes and Tips

For optimal installation, ensure the brake rotor surface is clean and free of debris before mounting the new pads. Since mounting hardware and abutment clips are not included, reuse existing hardware if in good condition or replace separately as needed. The included pad shims should be installed to reduce noise and ensure proper pad alignment. Verify the mechanical pad wear sensor is properly connected to maintain accurate wear monitoring. Follow vehicle-specific service manual instructions for torque specifications and brake system bleeding procedures.
