Product Details

The 8312-03042 brake kit is a fitment-based replacement for front brake service on select Hyundai Tucson and Kia Cadenza models. The drilled and slotted rotor layout helps manage heat and maintain pad contact characteristics during repeated stops, while the ceramic pad formulation supports smooth operation in everyday driving. The black-coated rotor finish adds a finished look and helps protect non-friction surfaces. This part number, 8312-03042, is a practical option when replacing worn front brake components with a matched rotor-and-pad package.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues Addressed

• Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotor surfaces.
• Reduced stopping performance from depleted pads.
• Noise caused by aged brake components.
• Heat buildup during repeated braking.
• Corrosion on exposed rotor surfaces.

Installation Notes

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and front position before installation. Inspect caliper condition, pad wear, and rotor mounting surfaces during service. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedures and torque specifications for proper installation.

Quality Assurance

Dynamic Friction supplies brake components for service replacement applications, and this kit is organized as a matched rotor-and-pad solution under part number 8312-03042.
