Detailed Features and Benefits

The Power Stop - Front Z17 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads with Hardware are crafted with a ceramic friction material composition that balances effective braking performance with low dust output. The slotted design helps channel away heat and gases generated during braking, which can improve pad longevity and reduce brake fade under demanding conditions. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 17.7 mm, providing substantial material for longer service intervals.

Included mounting hardware and pad shims simplify the installation process and help maintain proper pad alignment, reducing noise and vibration. Chamfered edges on the pads further contribute to quieter operation and help prevent uneven wear patterns. These features make the 17-1306 brake pad set a practical choice for drivers seeking a performance-oriented upgrade for their Land Rover LR2 or Volvo S60, S80, V60, and XC70 vehicles.
