About the Raybestos Service Grade; Ceramic Product Line
The Service Grade; Ceramic line from Raybestos is engineered to provide a balance of performance and value for everyday driving conditions. These ceramic disc brake pads are designed to offer quieter operation and less brake dust compared to traditional semi-metallic pads. The inclusion of slotted friction material and chamfered edges helps maintain consistent braking performance while minimizing noise and vibration, making them suitable for a range of Ford and Lincoln vehicles.
Detailed Features and Benefits
The Raybestos SGD1612C disc brake pad set features ceramic friction material that is integrally molded to the backing plate, ensuring a secure bond and consistent wear. The slotted design aids in heat dissipation and helps prevent brake fade during extended use. Chamfered edges reduce the likelihood of noise and vibration, while the included clipped pad shims further dampen sound and improve pedal feel. Although mounting hardware and pad wear sensors are not included, these pads are designed for straightforward installation on compatible vehicles.
Common Applications and Problem Solving
- Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake pads on Ford Explorer, Flex, MKS, MKT, and Taurus
- Addressing brake noise caused by uneven pad contact or vibration
- Reducing brake dust accumulation on wheels
- Improving braking consistency and heat management during daily driving
- Resolving issues related to brake fade under moderate use
Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported before beginning brake service. Since mounting hardware is not included, inspect existing hardware for wear and replace if necessary. Clean the caliper and rotor surfaces thoroughly to promote proper pad seating. The clipped pad shims are pre-attached, simplifying installation. Verify compatibility with your specific Ford or Lincoln model using the part number SGD1612C before installation.
Quality Assurance and Warranty
Raybestos disc brake pads undergo rigorous quality control to meet industry standards for safety and performance. The Service Grade; Ceramic line is designed to provide reliable braking under normal driving conditions.
