Product Line Details: Power Stop Rear Z26 Street Performance Pads

The Power Stop - Rear Z26 Street Performance Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads with Hardware Kit belong to the Z26 line, which focuses on street performance applications. This product line combines carbon fiber ceramic materials with advanced design features such as slotted rotors and chamfered edges to provide improved braking response and reduced noise. The inclusion of mechanical pad wear sensors and comprehensive hardware components supports maintenance and installation, making the Z26 pads a practical choice for Tesla owners seeking reliable rear brake upgrades.

Technical Description and Features

These rear disc brake pads utilize carbon fiber ceramic friction material, known for its ability to maintain consistent friction levels under various driving conditions while minimizing brake dust. The slotted design enhances heat dissipation, helping to prevent brake fade during repeated stops. Chamfered edges reduce noise and vibration, and the friction surface is pre-scorched to ensure immediate bedding and consistent performance. Mechanical pad wear sensors are included to alert drivers when pad replacement is necessary, supporting vehicle safety and maintenance schedules. Both outer and inner pads have an overall thickness of 14.6 mm, contributing to longer pad life.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged rear brake pads on Tesla Model S and Model X
• Improves braking consistency and reduces fade during street driving
• Minimizes brake dust buildup on wheels for cleaner appearance
• Provides mechanical pad wear sensor alerts to prevent unexpected brake issues
• Reduces noise and vibration through chamfered edges and slotted design

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Power Stop Z26-2164 rear brake pads, ensure the mechanical pad wear sensors are properly connected to maintain accurate wear monitoring. Use the included brake lubricant on contact points to reduce noise and ensure smooth operation. Verify that the slotted surfaces are oriented correctly to maximize heat dissipation. It is recommended to inspect rotors for wear or damage and replace or resurface as needed to maintain optimal braking performance.
