Designed with ceramic friction material and advanced features, this brake pad set offers consistent stopping power and noise reduction.

• Ceramic friction material for smooth braking and reduced dust
• Slotted design to improve heat dissipation and reduce brake fade
• Chamfered edges to minimize noise and vibration

Detailed Features and Specifications

The QC741 disc brake pad set features a ceramic friction material composition that provides stable braking performance and less brake dust compared to semi-metallic pads. The slotted design helps channel away heat and gases generated during braking, which reduces the risk of brake fade under demanding conditions. Chamfered edges on the pads further contribute to quieter operation by reducing vibration and harsh engagement noises. Pad shims are included to assist in noise dampening and ensure a secure fit. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 0.65 inches, supporting long-lasting wear and consistent braking response. This set does not include pad wear sensors or abutment clips, so verify compatibility with your vehicle’s brake hardware.
