This product line incorporates slotted and chamfered pads to optimize heat management and reduce noise, making it suitable for performance-oriented vehicles like the Nissan 350Z and INFINITI G35. The integrally molded friction material ensures uniform wear and reliable braking response over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDetailed Product Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRaybestos PGD960M disc brake pads are constructed with metallic friction material that is integrally molded to the backing plate, providing a secure bond and consistent braking performance. The slotted design helps channel away heat and debris, reducing the risk of brake fade during demanding driving conditions. Chamfered edges further contribute to quieter operation by minimizing pad-to-rotor contact noise. Pad shims are included and attached using a staked method to help reduce vibration and squeal, although mounting hardware and pad wear sensors are not included with this set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for worn or damaged front or rear disc brake pads on Nissan 350Z, G35, and Sentra models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses brake noise and vibration issues through chamfered edges and attached shims\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during spirited driving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores consistent braking performance and pedal feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for vehicles requiring metallic friction material for enhanced durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnsure compatibility with your specific INFINITI or Nissan model before installation. Since mounting hardware and pad wear sensors are not included, reuse existing hardware if in good condition or purchase separately. Properly clean and inspect the brake rotor surface before installing the new pads. Follow manufacturer torque specifications when tightening caliper bolts. Bed-in the new pads according to Raybestos guidelines to optimize performance and longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRaybestos Element3; Metallic brake pads are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function.
