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

The Power Stop - Rear Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads line focuses on delivering performance-grade ceramic brake pads engineered to reduce brake dust accumulation while maintaining effective stopping power. This product line is tailored for rear disc brake applications, combining ceramic friction material with design features such as slots and chamfered edges to enhance pad life and braking consistency. The inclusion of mechanical wear sensors and pad shims further supports maintenance and noise reduction.

Product Features and Technical Details

These disc brake pads feature a ceramic friction material composition that offers stable friction performance and lower dust output compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. Both the inner and outer pads have a friction material thickness of 13.2 mm, ensuring durability and extended service life. The slotted design helps to dissipate heat effectively, reducing the risk of brake fade during demanding driving conditions. Chamfered edges reduce edge stress and noise, while the included pad shims help to dampen vibrations for quieter braking. Mechanical pad wear sensors are integrated to provide a reliable indication of pad wear, facilitating timely replacement.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged rear disc brake pads on compatible INFINITI and Nissan vehicles
• Reduces brake dust buildup on wheels for cleaner appearance
• Improves braking consistency and heat management during performance driving
• Minimizes brake noise and vibration through chamfered edges and shims
• Provides early warning of pad wear with mechanical sensors
