What makes the Z36 pads different from standard ceramic pads?

The Z36 pads use a carbon-fiber reinforcement. This proprietary compound enhances the strength of typical ceramic brake pads, allowing them to handle the increased heat and stress from towing, hauling, and heavy-duty use without sacrificing everyday drivability.

How do the drilled and slotted rotors help?

The drilling and slotting on the rotors serve two main purposes. The slots help sweep away gas and dust, while both drilling and slotting increase the surface area for better heat dissipation. This helps keep brake temperatures down, which is critical for maintaining consistent stopping power during heavy use, like towing or descending steep grades.

Product Details

The PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Kit starts with proprietary carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, which are reinforced to handle the extra stress that comes with towing, hauling, or off-roading. These pads are designed to offer severe-duty stopping power without making your daily commute uncomfortable. This kit is a great option for your Buick Rainier, Chevrolet SSR, GMC Envoy, or Isuzu Ascender, among other vehicles, providing an easy bolt-on upgrade for your stock braking system.

Paired with the pads are drilled and slotted rotors. The drilling and slotting aren't just for looks; they help maximize heat dissipation, which is crucial for preventing brake fade on long downhill stretches or during heavy use. The rotors also feature a zinc plating to protect them from rust. This complete kit includes everything you need, like premium stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant, for a straightforward installation that requires no modifications to your vehicle's stock setup.
