Both inner and outer pads have substantial friction material thickness—approximately 11.0 mm inner and 11.2 mm outer—ensuring durability and extended service life. The pads are slotted to improve heat dissipation during braking, which helps maintain consistent performance under demanding conditions. Chamfered edges reduce the likelihood of noise and vibration, while the iron backing plates provide structural strength and stability. Pad shims are included to further reduce noise and ensure a secure fit. Note that mounting hardware and abutment clips are not included, and these pads do not come with wear sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Application\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake pad set is compatible with select Ford models, specifically the Ford Focus and Ford Transit Connect.

Since mounting hardware is not included, reuse existing hardware if in good condition or replace as necessary. Properly install the included pad shims to minimize noise and vibration. Check brake fluid levels and test the brake system after installation to confirm proper operation. It is recommended to replace brake pads in axle sets to maintain balanced braking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuraGo brake pads are manufactured to meet industry standards for safety and performance. The BP970C set is constructed with bonded friction material and iron backing plates to ensure durability and consistent braking.
