Bosch Blue Ceramic Rear Brake Pad Set BE1724H — OE-Style Fit with Hardware, Quiet Corrosion-Resistant Stopping

Bosch BE1724H Blue Ceramic rear brake pad set delivers OE-style fit, ceramic friction, and hardware for quiet, corrosion-resistant stopping on one axle (two wheels).

Engineered for everyday driving, the Bosch Blue line applies platform-specific ceramic friction and OE-inspired design to provide consistent braking performance without the premium QuietCast price. This BE1724H rear pad kit includes pads, a hardware kit, and synthetic lubricant—plus a rust-inhibitive coating and multi-layer shims intended to reduce noise and prolong pad life. Pads are precision-manufactured to strict tolerances and arrive wrapped in a protective blue shop towel inside the box for clean, ready-to-install components.

How do these pads reduce brake noise?

The Bosch Blue pads use original-equipment-style, multi-layer shims and carefully matched ceramic friction compounds to minimize vibration and squeal. Slotting and chamfering of the friction surface further prevent edge chattering, promoting smooth, quiet stops across a wide range of driving conditions.

• Multi-layer shim backing for vibration damping
• Ceramic friction tailored to reduce high-frequency noise
• OE-style slots and chamfers to avoid edge noise

What protection helps these pads resist corrosion and wear?

Steel backing plates receive a rust-inhibitive coating to stop corrosion that can degrade pad function and create noisy brakes. The ceramic friction formulation also reduces brake fade and provides long-wearing performance under normal driving loads.

• Rust-inhibitive coating on backing plates
• Ceramic friction for lower fade and longer life
• Precision machining ensures uniform wear and fit

What comes in the BE1724H kit and how easy is installation?

The kit includes rear brake pads for one axle (two wheels), installation hardware, and a small packet of synthetic lubricant for sliding contact points. Pads arrive wrapped for protection and are made to OE tolerances for straightforward replacement, but certain vehicles require brake service mode for Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) systems.

• Pads for one axle, hardware kit, and synthetic lubricant included
• Pads wrapped in a protective blue towel for clean handling
• Verify vehicle fitment and observe EPB service-mode requirements

Are there any special tools or steps recommended?

To retract caliper pistons and fit the new pads correctly, a brake pad spreader or piston retraction tool is recommended. Heavy-duty caliper hangers are suggested to secure calipers during service and avoid strain on hoses or EPB wiring.

• Use a disc brake pad spreader or piston retraction tool
• Secure calipers with hangers to protect hoses and EPB components
• Confirm whether your vehicle uses twist-in pistons or requires EPB service mode

Who this product is for: The Bosch BE1724H Blue Ceramic rear pad set is ideal for drivers seeking an OE-style replacement with improved noise control and corrosion protection at a reasonable price. It fits select Acura MDX (2014–2016) and specified Honda Passport, Pilot, and Ridgeline models; verify exact vehicle fitment before purchase. Choose these pads if you want reliable daily-driving stopping performance, ease of installation with included hardware, and ceramic-based friction designed to resist fade and reduce chatter—without stepping up to a premium line.
