Dynamic Friction 6312-03045 Disc Brake Kit - Front

Brake Kit Overview

This Dynamic Friction disc brake kit combines rotors, 3000 ceramic pads, and hardware for front brake service. It is built for drivers who need consistent stopping performance, low dust, and OE-style fitment for select Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage applications.

Part number 6312-03045 is a front brake service kit for 2010-2015 Hyundai Tucson and 2011-2016 Kia Sportage models. The kit pairs cast iron rotors with ceramic pads and matched hardware to support quieter braking and stable pedal feel.

Key Features

• DFC 3000 ceramic pads deliver stable friction across a wide temperature range.
• Low-dust pad formulation helps reduce brake dust buildup on wheels.
• Post-cured and scorched pads reduce initial break-in time.
• G3000 cast iron rotors are machined to tight tolerances for OE-style durability.
• Non-directional rotor finish promotes even pad bed-in and smoother stops.
• Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel.

Detailed Description

Dynamic Friction 6312-03045 is a front disc brake kit engineered around the needs of Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage owners who want a complete brake service solution. The DFC 3000 ceramic pads are formulated for reliable stopping performance, fade resistance, and improved noise control through premium rubber-steel-rubber shims. The rotors use G3000 cast iron and are inspected for balance and critical dimensions to meet OE specifications. The included hardware is designed to restore proper caliper movement and reduce wear-related noise.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. Part number 6312-03045 is a practical choice when replacing worn front brake components on a Hyundai Tucson or Kia Sportage.

What It Helps Address

• Brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
• Uneven pad wear caused by corroded or weakened hardware
• Longer stopping distances from worn friction material
• Brake dust buildup from older pad compounds
• Rotor vibration or rough braking feel from worn service parts

Installation Notes

Fits 2010-2015 Hyundai Tucson, front. Fits 2011-2016 Kia Sportage, front. Verify rotor size, caliper configuration, and existing brake hardware before installation. Clean hub surfaces and follow proper bedding procedures after installation to help the pads and rotors seat evenly.

Quality Assurance

DFC rotors are machined to OE specifications and inspected for balance and critical attributes. The brake pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction performance, and the hardware kit uses corrosion-resistant materials. DFC provides a 12 month or 12,000 mile limited warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
