Construction & Design:

PowerStop’s Z17 Evolution pads utilize a ceramic friction material specially formulated to provide strong, fade-resistant braking while producing minimal dust. The ceramic compound is engineered to maintain stable friction levels across a wide temperature range, ensuring consistent stopping power in everyday driving conditions. The backing plates are powder coated to prevent rust and corrosion, which helps maintain structural integrity and prolongs pad life.

Each pad features multi-layer rubberized shims that dampen vibrations and reduce noise, delivering a quieter braking experience. The chamfered edges and slots in the pad surface further contribute to noise reduction and help channel away heat and debris, enhancing overall brake system performance.

The Z17 Evolution ceramic brake pads are designed to provide smooth, confident braking with minimal noise. The multi-layer shims and chamfered, slotted design work together to virtually eliminate squealing and other unwanted brake sounds. Additionally, the thermal scorched surface ensures a quick break-in period, allowing drivers to experience optimal braking performance shortly after installation.
