Posi Quiet brake pads are manufactured using the same positive molding process that Original Equipment suppliers utilize.
This positive molding uses extreme pressure to compress the friction material and bond it to the backing plate.
Consistent friction material density throughout the pad is assured by this process, resulting in even wear and performance characteristics throughout the brake pad's life.
Noise and vibration are the number one causes for customer returns.
These issues have been recognized by Centric Parts, which is constantly improving its products to eliminate them.
Posi Quiet brake friction features either precision cut or shaved backing plates and mechanically attached shims; these small details ensure proper fitment in the caliper and virtually eliminate noise associated with pad vibration.
In addition to these features, Centric Parts has added a scorching process to all of its Posi Quiet brake pads.
This additional process forces any impurities out of the friction material and pre-burnishes the pads to greatly accelerate the break-in process.
All Posi Quiet brake pad friction formulations are asbestos free and are available in three application specific compounds complete with all necessary hardware for installation where applicable.
