• Brake fade during repeated stops

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect rotors, caliper hardware, and guide components before installation. Clean the caliper bracket contact points, apply brake lubricant where appropriate, and verify that the pad shims and abutment clips seat correctly. Because mounting hardware and brake lubricant are not included, reuse or replace those items as needed during service. Confirm front axle fitment by year, make, and model before ordering.

Quality Assurance

Quality-Built Black Series brake pads are engineered for smooth, reliable stopping with low dust and reduced noise. The friction compound is tuned for predictable brake response and fade resistance across a broad thermal range, supporting consistent performance in daily driving conditions.
