What makes these brake pads 'low metallic'?

The 'low metallic' designation refers to the composition of the friction material. This formulation uses a reduced amount of metallic content compared to some other pad types, which helps them be more rotor-friendly and can contribute to longer pad and rotor life.

Are these brake pads designed for specific axles?

Yes, DFC formulates these pads specifically for each axle on every vehicle they are designed for. This ensures they are matched to the braking requirements of the front or rear of your specific application.

What does it mean that these pads are 'rotor friendly'?

A rotor-friendly brake pad is designed to minimize wear on your brake rotors. This means that while the pads themselves wear down over time, they do so in a way that helps preserve the surface of your rotors, potentially saving you money on future brake jobs.
