Detailed Product Description

The Power Stop - Front Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads are engineered with a ceramic friction material composition that helps maintain consistent stopping power while producing less brake dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. Both the outer and inner pads feature a friction material thickness of 17.0 mm, which supports longer service intervals. The pads come equipped with mechanical wear sensors, allowing drivers to monitor pad condition and replace them before performance is compromised.

Additional design features include slotted surfaces that aid in heat dissipation during heavy braking, reducing the risk of brake fade. Chamfered edges help to reduce noise and vibration, contributing to a quieter braking experience. The included pad shims further enhance fitment and noise reduction.
