Detailed Product Description

The Power Stop - Rear Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads are engineered with ceramic friction material that provides stable braking performance while generating less dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. The slotted design enhances heat dissipation, which helps maintain braking efficiency during extended use. Chamfered edges reduce the likelihood of noise and vibration, contributing to a quieter braking experience. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 16.5 mm, ensuring durability and extended service life. Pad shims are included to assist with installation and further reduce noise. These pads do not include a pad wear sensor, so monitoring pad thickness is recommended during maintenance.
