Detailed Product Description

These disc brake pads feature a uniform friction material thickness of 15.8 mm on both outer and inner pads, providing consistent wear and braking force. The ceramic composition helps minimize brake dust, which keeps wheels cleaner compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. Slotted pads improve heat dissipation during braking, reducing the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions. Chamfered edges contribute to quieter braking by preventing pad edge noise and vibration. The included mechanical pad wear sensor alerts drivers when pad replacement is necessary, helping maintain safe braking performance. Mounting hardware and pad shims are supplied to facilitate proper installation and reduce noise.
