MOTORCRAFT® BRAKE PADS
Quality parts for Ford and Lincoln braking systems
Simplified product lineup makes for quick and simple ordering
Excellent braking performance
Friction materials meet Ford Engineering requirements for lining life, noise and dust
- Beveled friction material edges help eliminate vibration for smooth stops
- Slots cut into the pads help dissipate heat for long life and reduced fade
- Noise damping insulators, shims and attaching hardware included to replace worn parts that can contribute to brake squeal
All Motorcraft® pads and shoes meet tough Ford Engineering standards
Friction content is tested to ensure top performance
Durability tested to evaluate friction performance for wear, noise, dust and vibration
Environmentally conscious
- All new brake pad kit packaging includes Environmental Leaf illustration
- At a glance, it will identify the environmental standards the brake kit meets
- The more leaves filled in, the more environmentally friendly the brakes are
The importance of shims, slots and chamfers
Shims
Stamped metal plates coated with sound damping materials improve noise abatement and vibration for the life of the pad
Placed on backside of backing plate to help reduce the vibrations that cause brakes to squeal
Slots
Vertical grooves cut in brake pads
Significantly reduce pad bending when heated in normal braking conditions
Reduce noise that can result from pads that have become concave
Reduce brake fade by providing passage for gases and dust to escape at high brake temperatures
Chamfers
Angled or beveled edges on the leading and trailing ends of the brake pads
Chamfers on leading edge of brake pads reduce digging into the rotor
Help eliminate stick/slip vibration, which causes brake noise
