Mercedes-Benz Passenger DISK BRAKE PADs are designed for use in the braking system of select models. With dimensions measuring 100.0 x 128.0 x 258.0 mm, they provide a precise fit to ensure optimal performance. Technical benefits include improved safety through consistent friction levels and reduced maintenance needs due to their resistance to wear. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions.
Brake pads are friction surfaces responsible for decelerating a vehicle by creating resistance against rotating brake rotors. Positioned within the brake caliper assembly at each wheel, they convert kinetic energy into thermal energy through repeated contact. Modern brake pads utilize composite materials—typically a blend of organic compounds, semi-metallic particles, or ceramic fibers—bonded to a steel backing plate for structural integrity. Friction material composition directly influences stopping performance, noise characteristics, and rotor wear. Pad design incorporates features like chamfers, slots, or shims to mitigate noise and manage heat buildup.
