Detailed Features of Power Stop Rear Z16 Brake Pads

The Power Stop - Rear Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads are crafted with a ceramic friction material composition that helps reduce brake dust buildup, keeping wheels cleaner compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 16.5 mm, providing a substantial amount of material for longer-lasting braking performance. The pads feature a slotted design that aids in heat dissipation, which helps prevent brake fade during repeated stops.
