Dynamic Friction 4512-72041 Disc Brake Kit - Rear

Complete rear brake service kit

This Dynamic Friction disc brake kit combines GeoSpec coated rotors, 5000 Advanced brake pads, and hardware for a complete rear brake service solution. It is built for the Freightliner FL360 and uses OE-style engineering for consistent braking performance and easier installation.

Key features

• GeoSpec coated rotors with a silver-gray finish that resists rust better than conventional paint or zinc coatings.
• Rotors are processed dry and ready to install, with no oil coating to clean off before service.
• 5000 Advanced brake pads are post-cured and scorched to reduce break-in time and improve initial stopping response.
• Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims help reduce brake noise and vibration.
• Hardware is included as part of the complete brake kit.
• Part number 4512-72041 identifies this rear brake service kit.

Detailed description

Dynamic Friction 4512-72041 is a rear disc brake kit for 2012-2020 Freightliner FL360 applications. The kit pairs DFC GeoSpec coated rotors with 5000 Advanced brake pads and hardware, giving technicians the core components needed for a rear brake service in one package. The rotors are made to OE-level dimensional targets, finished with a non-directional surface for more even pad bed-in, and inspected for critical quality points before release. The pads are formulated for stable friction performance and quieter operation, while the coated rotor surface helps protect against corrosion during service and after installation. If you are replacing worn rear brake components on a Freightliner FL360, part number 4512-72041 provides a matched kit approach instead of sourcing each piece separately.

Common issues this kit addresses

• Brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware.
• Uneven braking caused by rotor wear or surface irregularity.
• Corrosion on exposed rotor surfaces.
• Longer stopping response from aged friction materials.
• Excessive caliper movement related to worn brake hardware.

Installation notes and tips

Fits 2012-2020 Freightliner FL360, rear. Verify rotor condition, pad wear pattern, and caliper hardware before installation. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, so no cleaning step is needed to remove protective oil. Follow standard brake service procedures, including proper bedding-in after installation, to help the pads and rotors seat evenly. Confirm the application by part number 4512-72041 before ordering.

Quality assurance

DFC states that the rotors are manufactured to OE specifications and inspected for critical dimensions and balance. The rotors carry a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. Part number 4512-72041 is part of DFC's GeoSpec rotor and 5000 Advanced pad program, which is built around OE-style fit, finish, and braking consistency.
