Detailed Features and Benefits

The Power Stop - Rear Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads are engineered with ceramic friction material, which provides consistent braking performance while generating less dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. The slotted design helps channel away heat and gases produced during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions. Chamfered edges on both the inner and outer pads help reduce noise and ensure smooth pad-to-rotor contact. With a friction material thickness of 16.3 mm on both sides, these pads offer durability and longer service intervals. Included pad shims assist in minimizing vibration and noise during operation.

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Power Stop 16-1602 brake pads, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of debris. The included pad shims should be installed as directed to reduce noise and vibration. Verify that the chamfered edges align properly with the rotor to avoid uneven wear. Since these pads do not include a wear sensor, monitor pad thickness regularly to maintain optimal braking performance.
