Overview:

StopTech Centric Performance Brake Pads are engineered to deliver reliable, consistent braking performance for Dodge B1500 (1998), Dodge Ram 1500 (2000–2001), and Dodge Ram 1500 Van (1999–2002) models. Designed for drivers who demand dependable stopping power without sacrificing pad longevity, these brake pads offer a balanced blend of performance and durability. Whether you’re navigating daily commutes or hauling moderate loads, these pads provide smooth, predictable braking response under a variety of driving conditions.

Manufactured using advanced positive molding technology, these pads ensure uniform friction material density for even wear and consistent performance throughout their lifespan. StopTech’s Centric line is ideal for enthusiasts and fleet operators seeking OE-quality replacement parts that maintain safety and control.

Key Features:

StopTech Centric Performance Brake Pads incorporate proven technologies and materials to optimize braking efficiency and pad life. Key features include:

• Positive Mold Technology: Extreme pressure molding bonds friction material firmly to the backing plate, ensuring consistent density and uniform wear.
• Para-Aramid Friction Compounds: Specially formulated to provide linear braking response at both cold and hot temperatures for reliable stopping power.
• Precision Cut Backing Plates: Engineered for exact fitment and reduced noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH).
• Scorched Surface: Pre-burnished pads improve rotor bed-in for quicker break-in and enhanced initial performance.
• OE-Quality Manufacturing: Produced using the same processes as original equipment suppliers for dependable, consistent results.

Construction & Design:

These brake pads feature a robust construction that combines high-quality friction materials with precision-engineered backing plates. The positive molding process compresses the friction material under extreme pressure, creating a dense, uniform pad surface that resists uneven wear and fading. The para-aramid fibers within the friction compound enhance durability and heat resistance, ensuring stable braking performance across a wide temperature range.

The backing plates are precisely cut to match factory specifications, promoting easy installation and secure fitment. Additionally, the pads are scorched to optimize the initial bedding process, reducing rotor wear and improving overall braking smoothness.

Installation & Fitment:

StopTech Centric Performance Brake Pads are designed as direct replacements for the specified Dodge B1500, Ram 1500, and Ram 1500 Van models, requiring no modifications for installation. Their precise fitment ensures straightforward installation using standard brake hardware and tools. These pads are compatible with the original brake rotors and calipers, making them an ideal upgrade or replacement for maintaining factory-level braking performance.

What's Included:

• Set of front or rear brake pads (depending on selection)
• Pre-scorched friction surfaces for improved bed-in
• Precision-cut backing plates

Ideal For:

These brake pads are perfect for Dodge B1500 and Ram 1500 owners seeking a reliable, OE-quality replacement that balances performance and longevity. They suit daily drivers, light-duty truck users, and fleet operators who require consistent braking under varied conditions without excessive noise or premature wear. StopTech Centric Performance Brake Pads are also a great choice for enthusiasts who want dependable stopping power without the need for high-performance race compounds.
