Brake Performance Premium Semi Metallic Brake Pads are manufactured using the same positive molding process utilized by Original Equipment suppliers. Positive molding uses extreme pressure to compress the friction material and bond it to the backing plate. This process assures consistent friction material density throughout the pad, resulting in even wear and performance characteristics throughout the life of the brake pad. The brake friction features either precision-cut or shaved backing plates, as well as mechanically-attached shims; these small details ensure proper fitment in the caliper and virtually eliminate noise associated with pad vibration. In addition, a scorching process has been added to all of the Premium Semi Metallic brake pads. This additional process forces any impurities out of the friction material and pre-burnishes the pads to greatly accelerate the break-in process. These Premium Semi-Metallic Brake Pads have the highest temperature fade resistance and friction level of any Brake Pads we sell. They are designed to give you the best stopping power in all weather conditions.
Brake Performance Premium Semi Metallic Brake Pads are machined to the same fit and dimensions as your factory brake pads. You can install them with no worries about factory fit or function. We recommend that you have a certified mechanic install them for proper break-in procedure. If you have any questions or need assistance choosing the correct brake pads for your vehicle, call our brake experts toll-free at 866-756-5536.
