Power Stop Z16 Ceramic Rear Brake Pads | 16-1602 | 2012-2018 Ford F150

Add Stopping Power without Noise

Even though your truck's rear brakes only do the fraction of the work as its fronts, when you're towing, hauling, or doing anything else that requires maximum performance, upgraded rear brake pads certainly come in handy. Power Stop's rear Z16 ceramic pads for your F150 improve bite and stopping power while keeping noise and wear to the bare minimum to maintain your factory ride quality and comfort. These uprated stock replacements pop right into your stock brake calipers and deliver improved stopping ability and less fade than you stock pads and are an excellent choice for just about any application.

Unique Low-Wear, Low-Dust Formulation

Power Stop builds their Z16 pads with a specialized carbon-ceramic friction compound that improves stopping power by as much as 20% over stock semi-metallic brake pads. The ceramic compound keeps noise minimal, produces less brake dust, and causes less wear than traditional OEM brake pads which saves you money and headaches in the long run. These brake pads have thermal-scorched surfaces and built with a positive-mold production technique tat gives them an even density across each axis for consistent braking, wear, and performance.

Power Stop Extreme Bedding Note:

The break in procedure is critical to brake performance. The reason for a proper break in is to establish an even layer of friction material deposited on the rotors from the brake pads. It is very important that this initial layer of friction material is evenly distributed. Break in the pads as follows: 5 moderate to aggressive stops from 40 mph down to 10 mph in rapid succession without letting the brakes cool and do not come to a complete stop. Then do 5 moderate stops from 35 mph to 5 mph in rapid succession without letting the brakes cool. You should expect to smell some resin as the brakes get hot. After this is complete, drive around for as long as possible without excessively heating the brakes and without coming to a complete stop (Try for about 5 minutes at moderate speed). This is the cooling stage. It allows the heated resin in the brake pads to cool and cure. After the brakes have cooled to standard operating temperature, you may use the brakes normally.
