Detailed Product Description

These rear disc brake pads feature a carbon fiber ceramic friction material composition that balances effective stopping power with reduced brake dust and noise. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 13.2 mm, contributing to longer pad life and consistent braking performance. The slotted design helps dissipate heat and gases generated during braking, while chamfered edges minimize noise and vibration. The mechanical pad wear sensor alerts drivers when pad replacement is necessary, helping maintain safe braking conditions. Included pad shims and brake lubricant assist in proper installation and reduce potential squealing.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement of worn or damaged rear brake pads on Subaru BRZ, Crosstrek, Forester, Impreza, Legacy, Outback, WRX, and XV Crosstrek
• Reducing brake noise and vibration during daily driving
• Improving brake pad lifespan with durable carbon fiber ceramic material
• Maintaining consistent braking performance under normal driving conditions
• Ensuring timely brake maintenance with included mechanical wear sensors

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Power Stop Z23-1114 brake pads, ensure the mechanical pad wear sensor is properly connected to maintain accurate wear monitoring. Use the included brake lubricant on contact points to reduce noise and prevent corrosion. Verify that the slotted and chamfered edges are oriented correctly to optimize braking performance. It is recommended to inspect the brake rotors for wear or damage and replace or resurface as needed to ensure even pad contact.
