Product Details and Specifications
This disc brake pad set features an organic friction material composition that is designed to reduce brake dust and noise compared to metallic alternatives.

Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Raybestos SGD45 disc brake pads, ensure that the existing mounting hardware and pad shims are in good condition or replaced as needed, since these pads do not include hardware or shims. Proper cleaning of the caliper and rotor surfaces is recommended to prevent uneven wear. Because these pads do not have wear sensors, monitor pad thickness regularly to maintain safe braking performance.
