Element3; Ceramic Product Line Details

The Element3; Ceramic line from Raybestos focuses on ceramic friction material that is integrally molded to the backing plate, enhancing pad durability and consistent performance. This product line includes features such as slotted friction material and chamfered edges to reduce noise and improve heat dissipation, making it suitable for daily driving conditions on compatible Ford and Mercury vehicles.

Technical Specifications and Features

The PGD600C disc brake pad set features integrally molded ceramic friction material that provides stable braking performance and reduced dust compared to semi-metallic pads. The slotted design helps dissipate heat and gases generated during braking, which can extend pad life and maintain consistent stopping power. Chamfered edges reduce the likelihood of noise and vibration during braking. Pad shims are attached using a staked method to further minimize noise. This set does not include pad wear sensors or mounting hardware, so ensure compatibility with your vehicle’s existing components.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake pads on Ford Mustang, Mercury Cougar, and Thunderbird
• Reduces brake noise and vibration through chamfered edges and attached shims
• Improves heat dissipation with slotted friction material to prevent brake fade
• Provides consistent braking performance with ceramic friction material
• Helps maintain brake system reliability without pad wear sensors

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify compatibility with your specific Ford or Mercury model before installation
• This set does not include mounting hardware; reuse existing hardware or purchase separately
• Ensure brake rotors are inspected and resurfaced or replaced if necessary for optimal pad performance
• Follow manufacturer torque specifications when installing brake components
• Test brakes carefully after installation to confirm proper function
