PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow Front Brake Pads for Ford F-250/F-350/F-450 2012-22 | Carbon-Fiber Ceramic, Hardware

PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow front brake pads are built for drivers who demand more from every stop. Whether towing a heavy trailer, hauling gear to a job site, navigating steep mountain descents, or rolling on larger wheel-and-tire packages, these pads are designed to offer enhanced stopping power and lasting durability without adding drama to your daily drive.

Core technology and design combine carbon-fiber ceramic braking material with reinforced backing to deliver stronger bite and reduced dust. Paired with premium stainless-steel shims, they cushion caliper contact and help minimize noise and vibration for a smoother brake experience in city traffic and remote routes alike.

A powder-coated backing plate adds rust resistance and long-term durability, helping the pad assembly shrug off weather, road salt, and road grime. Together with a dedicated installation hardware kit, the Z36 Truck & Tow upgrade aims to provide a confident, bolt-on upgrade for many heavy-duty trucks and SUVs.
