Detailed Features and Specifications

The Power Stop - Front Z17 Low-Dust Ceramic Brake Pads with Hardware (part number 17-1977) are crafted with a 14.0 mm thick ceramic friction material on both the inner and outer pads. This thickness ensures a longer service life and consistent braking performance. The ceramic composition helps minimize brake dust, keeping your Ford Focus wheels cleaner compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. The pads feature a slotted design that aids in heat dissipation and reduces brake fade during extended use. Chamfered edges further contribute to quieter braking by reducing vibration and noise.

Included with the brake pads are mechanical pad wear sensors, which provide a reliable indication of pad wear to help maintain optimal braking safety. The set also comes with all necessary mounting hardware and pad shims, simplifying the installation process and ensuring proper fitment and alignment within the brake caliper assembly.
