The slotted design enhances heat dissipation during braking, which helps maintain consistent performance under demanding conditions. Chamfered edges on the pads reduce noise and vibration, contributing to a quieter driving experience. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 19.0 mm, providing durability and longer wear life. Included pad shims help ensure proper installation and reduce potential squealing. These pads do not include a pad wear sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Power Stop - Front Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads Line\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is part of the Power Stop - Front Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads line, which focuses on delivering ceramic brake pads designed for performance and cleanliness.
