What is the difference between semi-metallic and ceramic brake pads?

Semi-metallic brake pads are made from a blend of metal fibers and fillers, offering strong stopping power and good heat resistance. Ceramic pads use different materials that tend to be quieter, produce less dust, and last longer, but may have slightly less initial bite in very demanding situations.

Why is it important to replace the hardware when changing brake pads?

The hardware kit includes new clips and pins that help the brake pads move freely within the caliper bracket. Replacing these ensures proper pad retraction, reduces the chance of brake noise, and helps maintain consistent braking performance.

Do these brake pads come with everything needed for installation?

Yes, this kit includes both the semi-metallic brake pads and the necessary hardware for installation, such as new clips and pins. You will typically need standard brake service tools to complete the job.

Product Details

This is a rear semi-metallic brake pad and hardware kit from R1 Concepts, made for the 2007 through 2014 GMC Yukon. These pads are what make contact with your rotors to slow your vehicle down, and this kit includes everything you need to get them installed. Semi-metallic pads are a popular choice because they offer a good balance of stopping power and durability, especially in everyday driving conditions.

R1 Concepts uses a semi-metallic compound here, which is known for its ability to handle heat well and provide consistent stopping performance. This material tends to be a bit noisier than ceramic pads but offers a solid feel at the pedal. The included hardware kit means you get new clips and pins, which is always a good idea when replacing brake pads to ensure everything moves freely and quietly.

When you're doing a brake job, replacing the pads and hardware at the same time is the best way to go. It ensures your new pads bed in properly and that your braking system is working at its best. This kit is designed to be a direct replacement for your factory parts.
