StopTech 301.14630 Centric Premium Ceramic Brake Pads with Shims and Hardware

The StopTech 301.14630 Centric Premium Ceramic Brake Pads deliver reliable, everyday stopping performance for passenger cars and light-duty trucks. Engineered by Centric Parts — the brake-focused division behind StopTech — these pads use an application-specific ceramic friction compound that balances strong bite with low dust output and quiet operation.

Key Features:

• Low-Dust Ceramic Formula: Ceramic compound produces significantly less brake dust than semi-metallic alternatives, helping keep wheels cleaner between service intervals
• Consistent Performance Hot or Cold: Engineered to deliver excellent stopping power across a wide temperature range, from a cold morning start to repeated stops in traffic
• 100% Asbestos-Free Friction Material: Safe, compliant formulation meeting modern environmental and safety standards
• Positive Mold Technology: Friction material is positive-molded for uniform density throughout the pad, promoting even wear and consistent feel over the life of the pad
• OE-Style Slots and Chamfers: Gas slots and chamfers are machined to OE specifications to reduce noise and optimize braking performance, especially in repeated stop situations
• High-Performance Shims Included: Pre-attached shims dampen vibration and noise for a quieter, more refined braking feel
• Application-Specific Hardware Included: Complete hardware kit is included, ensuring a full system restoration and extended service life
• Installation Ready: Arrives as a complete, ready-to-install set — no additional hardware sourcing required

The StopTech 301-series Centric Premium Ceramic pads are an ideal upgrade or direct replacement for drivers seeking improved noise control, reduced wheel dust, and long-lasting braking reliability without sacrificing stopping power.
