About the Power Stop - Front Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads Line

The Power Stop - Front Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads line focuses on delivering performance-oriented ceramic brake pads that reduce brake dust buildup while maintaining reliable stopping power. This product line is engineered to provide a quieter braking experience with features like chamfered edges and included pad shims. The slotted design enhances heat management, which is critical for maintaining consistent braking performance on heavy-duty Ford vans such as the E-150, E-250, and E-350 Super Duty.

Product Details and Specifications

These disc brake pads feature a ceramic friction material composition that offers stable friction and less dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 18.1 mm, contributing to longer pad life. The slotted design helps channel away heat and gases generated during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions. Chamfered edges reduce noise and help the pads seat properly against the rotor. Pad shims are included to further minimize vibration and noise during braking. Note that these pads do not include a pad wear sensor.
