Valeo brake pads are heavy metal and asbestos free and all undergo an efficient scorching method to reinforce the brake pad. Various components are utilised in the friction material to ensure increased longevity of the brake pad, with durability tests carried out on taxis. An anti-noise shim is fitted to a number of Valeo’s brake pads resulting in reduced vibrations and almost non-existent noise level. All Valeo brake pads are delivered in full colour cardboard boxes detailing applications covered, complete with accessories and easy to follow fitting instructions.

- OE quality brake pads conforming to ECE R90 regulations
- OE-like friction materials that are extensively tested
- Accessories provided in the box
- Brake pads include noise reducing metal and fibres for greater driver comfort

Installation Tips

• Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
• Apply Brake Lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
• Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
• Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
• After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
