OEM GM Brake Pads

Brake pads for your GM model play the most important part of your brake system. They are responsible for slowing and stopping your car with friction. And because friction produces heat, brake pads must maintain integrity for full functionality.

Brake pads are made with a variety of different materials, the most common being organic, non-asbestos materials. Organic brake pads can contain fiber glass, rubber, resin, and carbon glass. Then there are semi-metallic brake pads, metallic brake pads, and ceramic brake pads.

Brake pads are attached to the brake calipers. When your brake pedal engages, brake fluid is sent to charge the caliper piston which presses the brake pads into the rotors attached to your wheels. Because the friction used to stop your vehicle produces heat, over time, your brake pads will wear down and eventually require a replacement.

Signs of brake disintegration are:

• Squeaking or grinding when braking
• Soft brake pedal
• Reduced braking distance
• Excessive brake dust on wheels
