Construction & Design:
The C-Tek brake pads feature a semi-metallic compound that blends metallic fibers with organic materials to provide excellent heat resistance and braking consistency. This composition ensures effective heat dissipation during heavy braking, reducing the risk of brake fade. The pads are post-cured to stabilize the friction material, delivering uniform performance throughout their lifespan.
StopTech engineers have incorporated OE-matched slots and chamfers into the pad design, which help to channel away dust and gases generated during braking, while also reducing noise and vibration. The included vibration damping shims further enhance comfort by absorbing brake-induced vibrations, resulting in a quieter and smoother braking experience.
Performance & Sound
These brake pads are specifically formulated to provide smooth, quiet braking with minimal noise and vibration. The combination of semi-metallic compounds, precision slots, chamfers, and shims work together to reduce brake squeal and harshness, delivering a refined driving experience. Whether navigating city streets or highway towing, the C-Tek pads maintain consistent pedal feel and stopping power under varied conditions.
Installation & Fitment:
StopTech C-Tek Semi-Metallic Brake Pads are designed as direct replacements for the rear brake pads on Dodge Ram 1500 models from 2006 to 2008, Ram 2500 from 2001 to 2008, and Ram 3500 from 2001 to 2008. Their OE-matched fitment ensures a hassle-free installation without the need for modifications or additional hardware.
