C-TEK; Ceramic
C-Tek Ceramic brake pads offer exceptional service life and produce minimal dust.
Features:
Low dust
Shimmed to eliminate noise and vibration
Formulated for reduced noise
Advanced Ceramic compounds
Post cured for consistent performance throughout the service life of the pad
100% Asbestos free
Scorched for easy bed-in
Organic vs. Ceramic vs. Semi-Metallic - What Is The Difference?
A common question many drivers have when shopping for brake pads is “What is the difference between the different brake pad materials?” While all brake pads will stop your vehicle, there are pros and cons of each pad material:
Brake Pad Material Cost Dust Level Noise Level Stopping Power Pad Life
Organic
$
Semi-Metallic
$$
Ceramic
$$$
Installation Tips
Always work on one side of the vehicle at a time. For front brakes, turn the steering wheel to the side you are working on to increase access to the caliper bolts
Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
Apply Brake Lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the brake fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
