Manufactured to match FMSI D679-7558 specifications, the kit includes four semi-metallic pads sized 166.12 mm long by 57.25 mm wide and 15.9 mm thick. The multi-layer construction, chamfered edges and precision slots help reduce vibration and control temperature buildup that can degrade braking performance over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these pads improve braking feel and noise control?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pads use a semi-metal compound combined with an engineered internal backing to manage vibration and sound.
