• Chamfered edges to minimize noise and vibration
• Includes pad shims for quieter operation
• Outer and inner pad friction material thickness of 16.4 mm
• No pad wear sensor included

Detailed Features and Benefits

The Power Stop - Front Z16 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads feature a ceramic friction material composition that provides stable braking performance while generating less dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. The slotted design helps channel away heat and gases produced during braking, which can reduce brake fade and maintain consistent stopping power under various driving conditions. Chamfered edges on the pads help reduce noise and vibration, contributing to a smoother braking experience. Additionally, the included pad shims help further dampen noise and ensure proper pad alignment.

Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 16.4 mm, providing ample material for extended service life. These pads do not include a pad wear sensor, so monitoring pad thickness during maintenance is recommended.
