Dynamite Friction 4512-63174 Disc Brake Kit - Rear

Rear Brake Kit for Mercedes-Benz SL500

Restore rear braking performance on select Mercedes-Benz SL500 models with the DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit. Part number 4512-63174 combines coated rear rotors, ceramic brake pads, and matching hardware components in one service kit for a cleaner, more complete brake job.

Compatible With 2003-2006 Mercedes-Benz SL500 rear applications, this kit is built for drivers looking for OE-style fitment, corrosion resistance, and consistent pedal response. The DFC 5000 Advanced pad formulation and GeoSpec coated rotor design are engineered to work together for smoother stops and reduced brake noise.

Key Features

• Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel
• Designed to match OE specifications for durability and stability

Product Details

The DFC 5000 Advanced brake pads are post-cured for stable friction performance and scorched to reduce uncured bonding agents, helping shorten the initial break-in period. Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims are used to improve NVH characteristics, which can help reduce brake noise and vibration during everyday driving. The rear rotors are cast to G3000/G11H18 specifications, machined to tight tolerances, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions before release.

For Mercedes-Benz SL500 rear brake service, 4512-63174 provides a practical all-in-one solution for replacing worn rotors, pads, and related hardware at the same time. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues This Kit Can Address

• Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rear rotors
• Squealing or vibration caused by aged pads and hardware
• Reduced stopping performance from heat-worn friction material
• Corrosion on exposed rotor surfaces
• Uneven pad wear from fatigued brake hardware

Installation Notes

Fits 2003-2004 Mercedes-Benz SL500, rear, solid rear rotors. Fits 2005-2006 Mercedes-Benz SL500, rear. Confirm rotor style and rear axle application before ordering. The rotors are shipped dry and ready for installation, which eliminates the need to clean oil-coated surfaces before brake service.

Quality Assurance

Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is 100% inspected after machining to verify critical specifications and is backed by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. DFC brake pads are produced with post-curing and scorching processes to support stable friction characteristics, while the hardware kit is built with OE-style attention to form, fit, and function.
