Product Details

The DFC 4000 HybriDynamic line focuses on predictable braking behavior without forcing you to guess at pad material selection. This rear disc brake pad set uses a hybrid friction compound to support smooth engagement, stable pedal feel, and dependable response in normal driving conditions.

Common Brake Issues It Can Address

• Excess brake dust from older or less controlled pad compounds
• Uneven pedal feel during routine braking
• Rear brake service needs on vehicles with vented rear disc setups where noted

Installation Notes

Confirm rear axle fitment before ordering, especially on 2013-2019 Ford Flex models with 352 mm front and vented rear disc brakes. Inspect rotors, caliper hardware, and wear sensor provisions during service. Mounting hardware is not included, and the pads are prepared for a mechanical wear sensor but do not include a sensor.

Quality Assurance

The hybrid friction material, molded attachment, and low-noise, low-dust characteristics support a clean, controlled rear brake service on the listed Ford and Lincoln vehicles.
