Product Line Details: Power Stop Front Z36 Truck and SUV Pads

The Power Stop - Front Z36 Truck and SUV Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads with Hardware Kit are part of Power Stop's performance-grade line tailored for trucks and SUVs. This line focuses on carbon fiber ceramic friction material that balances strong stopping power with reduced brake dust and noise. The inclusion of mechanical wear sensors and slotted pads supports both safety and longevity, making these pads suitable for heavier vehicles like the Jeep Wagoneer and Ram 1500.

Technical Description and Features

These disc brake pads feature a 19.8 mm thickness on both the outer and inner friction surfaces, providing a substantial amount of material for longer service intervals. The carbon fiber ceramic composition offers a stable friction coefficient across a wide temperature range, which helps maintain consistent braking performance. Slotted pads aid in venting gases and heat, reducing the risk of brake fade during heavy use. Chamfered edges reduce noise and vibration, while the mechanical pad wear sensor alerts drivers when replacement is necessary. Included pad shims and brake lubricant help ensure proper fitment and reduce squeal.
