Detailed Product Features and Benefits

The Power Stop - Rear Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads are engineered with a 16.6 mm thickness on both outer and inner pads, ensuring long-lasting durability and consistent braking performance. The ceramic friction material composition is designed to minimize brake dust, helping to keep wheels cleaner compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. The slotted design enhances heat dissipation and helps channel away dust and gases generated during braking, which contributes to improved pad life and performance.

Chamfered edges reduce the likelihood of noise and vibration, providing a smoother braking experience. Included pad shims further assist in noise reduction and help maintain proper pad alignment. The electronic pad wear sensor alerts drivers when it’s time to replace the brake pads, supporting timely maintenance and safety.
