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 stopping power with reduced brake dust generation. The slotted design helps dissipate heat during braking, which can improve pad life and maintain consistent performance under demanding conditions. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 17.0 mm, ensuring ample material for extended use.

Chamfered edges on the pads help minimize noise and vibration, contributing to a quieter braking experience. This disc brake pad set also includes mounting hardware and pad shims, which facilitate a secure and proper installation, reducing the risk of brake squeal and uneven wear. While these pads do not include a pad wear sensor, their design focuses on durability and performance for Volvo vehicles.
