Detailed Description

Built for front brake service on the Cadillac Catera, part number 1000-0720M is a direct-fit disc brake pad set that focuses on everyday drivability and controlled brake feel. The semi-metallic friction compound is selected for stable braking performance, while the included shims and adhesive backed shim help manage vibration and noise. MPA Electrical 1000-0720M is a practical replacement choice for drivers servicing 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2001 Cadillac Catera front brakes.

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

What It Helps Address

  • Reduced braking response from worn front pads
  • Brake squeal caused by pad vibration
  • Excessive brake dust from aging friction material
  • Uneven pad contact from worn abutment points
  • Noise and chatter during normal stop-and-go driving

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible with 1997-2001 Cadillac Catera, front. Inspect rotors, caliper hardware, and pad contact points before installation. Clean the bracket surfaces, apply brake lubricant where appropriate if specified by the vehicle service procedure, and verify smooth pad movement in the abutment clips. Because mounting hardware and brake lubricant are not included, reuse or replace those items as needed during brake service.

Quality Assurance

MPA Electrical brake components are built for replacement service with attention to fit, noise control, and braking consistency. This 1000-0720M pad set is new and uses a semi-metallic formulation with included shims and abutment clips for a service-ready front brake repair.
