Detailed Features and Benefits

The Power Stop - Rear Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads are crafted with a performance-grade ceramic friction material that balances effective stopping power with reduced brake dust generation. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 14.6 mm, ensuring long-lasting wear. The slotted design helps dissipate heat and gases during braking, which contributes to consistent pedal feel and reduced brake fade. Chamfered edges further reduce noise and prevent uneven pad wear. Mechanical pad wear sensors are included to alert drivers when replacement is needed, helping maintain optimal braking safety. Additionally, pad shims are provided to reduce vibration and noise, enhancing overall driving comfort.
