Detailed Features and Specifications
The Power Stop - Front Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads (16-621) utilize a ceramic friction material composition that offers consistent braking performance while generating less brake dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. Both the inner and outer pads have a friction material thickness of 15.8 mm, ensuring long service life. The pads are slotted to help dissipate heat and gases during braking, which contributes to improved fade resistance and quieter operation. Chamfered edges further reduce noise and prevent uneven pad wear. Included pad shims help reduce vibration and brake squeal, enhancing overall driving comfort. Additionally, the mechanical pad wear sensors provide a reliable indication when the pads need replacement, helping maintain safe braking performance.
