Overview:

StopTech Centric Performance Brake Pads are engineered to deliver reliable, consistent braking performance for a wide range of Dodge Durango and Ram 1500 models spanning from 2002 through 2022. Designed for drivers who demand dependable stopping power without sacrificing longevity, these brake pads utilize advanced manufacturing techniques to ensure uniform wear and smooth operation. Whether youre tackling daily commutes or hauling heavy loads, these pads provide the confidence and control needed for safe driving.

Built to meet or exceed original equipment standards, these pads are ideal for fleet vehicles, performance enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a durable upgrade that maintains factory-level braking feel and responsiveness.

Key Features:

StopTech Centric Performance Brake Pads incorporate proven technologies to optimize braking efficiency and pad life. Key features include:

• Positive Mold Technology: Extreme pressure molding compresses friction material and bonds it securely to the backing plate, ensuring consistent density and uniform wear.
• Para-Aramid Friction Compounds: Specially formulated to provide a linear and predictable response across a wide temperature range, from cold starts to high-heat braking conditions.
• Precision Cut Backing Plates: Engineered for exact fitment and reduced noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH).
• Scorched Surface: Pre-burnished pads improve rotor bed-in for quicker break-in and enhanced initial performance.
• Wide Vehicle Compatibility: Designed to fit multiple Dodge Durango and Ram 1500 variants, including Classic and Van models, covering model years 2002 through 2022.
• Consistent Friction Performance: Maintains stable braking characteristics throughout the pads lifespan.
• OE-Level Quality: Manufactured using the same processes as original equipment suppliers for dependable quality and safety.

Construction & Design:

The Centric Performance brake pads feature a robust construction that begins with a high-quality backing plate designed for strength and durability. The friction material is bonded using positive mold technology, which applies extreme pressure to compress and secure the compound evenly. This process eliminates voids and inconsistencies, resulting in pads that wear evenly and maintain consistent braking performance over time.

The friction compound incorporates para-aramid fibers, known for their heat resistance and durability, ensuring reliable stopping power whether the brakes are cold or have reached operating temperatures. The pads are also scorched to optimize the bedding-in process, reducing the time needed to achieve peak performance and minimizing rotor wear.

Installation & Fitment:

StopTech Centric Performance Brake Pads are designed for direct replacement on compatible Dodge Durango and Ram 1500 models, requiring no modifications for installation. They fit a broad range of trims and years, including Durango models from 2003 to 2009, Ram 1500 trucks from 2002 to 2010, Ram 1500 Vans from 2003, Ram 1500 from 2011 to 2018, and Ram 1500 Classic from 2019 to 2022.

Installation is straightforward for professional mechanics and experienced DIYers alike, following standard brake pad replacement procedures. Proper bedding-in is recommended to maximize pad and rotor life.
