Carquest Professional Platinum Euro brake pads are the optimal braking solution that provide an unmatched level of performance and reliability. These brake pads are engineered by an Original Equipment Manufacturer (O.E.M.) that meets IATF 16949 certified framework, an internationally recognized proof of quality in the automotive industry. We use an industry-leading number of friction formulations for maximum performance and extended pad life on each application. Carquest Professional Platinum brake pads also utilize a patented 4-layer HEX shim, now upgraded with aramid fibers, to provide quiet braking and reduce shim wear. We include the wear sensors for most European applications that require replacement. These brake pads are also supplied with coated brake hardware and caliper pin grease for nearly every application. Carquest Professional Platinum brake pads are the ideal choice when looking for shorter stopping distances, quiet braking and longer-lasting brakes.
