What makes the Z36 pads different from standard ceramic pads?

The Z36 pads use a Carbon-Fiber Ceramic compound. This reinforcement makes them stronger and better suited for the demands of towing, hauling, or heavy-duty use compared to standard ceramic pads.

Does this kit include everything needed for installation?

Yes, this Z36 Truck & Tow kit is designed as a complete bolt-on upgrade. It includes the rotors, pads, calipers, premium stainless-steel hardware, and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant.

How do the drilled and slotted rotors help?

The slots on the rotors help to sweep away gas and dust that can build up during braking. The drilling, along with the rotor's zinc plating, helps to dissipate heat more effectively and resist rust, which is crucial for maintaining stopping power under heavy use.

Product Details

If you're towing a trailer, hauling gear for a job, or just need more confidence when stopping your 2001-2007 Ford Escape, this Power Stop Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Kit is a solid choice. This kit replaces your front rotors, pads, and calipers all at once, giving you a complete upgrade designed for tougher conditions than stock.

The Z36 pads are made with a Carbon-Fiber Ceramic compound, which means they're built stronger to handle the extra stress from towing or hauling without fading. They're also tested to produce about 30% less dust than original equipment pads, so your wheels stay cleaner. Paired with these pads are Drilled & Slotted rotors. The slots help clear out gas and dust, while the drilling and the rotor's zinc plating help dissipate heat and resist rust, which is especially important on long downhill stretches. The kit also includes red powder-coated calipers that not only protect against corrosion but also add a nice visual touch behind your wheels.

Everything you need for a bolt-on installation is included, like stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature brake lubricant. This kit is a straightforward way to get improved stopping performance for your Escape without needing any modifications.
