Robert Bosch LLC has added 17 part numbers to its brake pads and rotating machines product lines.

Brake pads sets

The QuietCast Brake Pad line gained one SKU and the Bosch Blue Brake Pad line gained three SKUs. Hardware kits are included for select applications.

Overall, the new part number releases extend Bosch coverage to an additional 368,000 late-model Mercedes-Benz units in operation. The new QuietCast Brake Pad part number comes with a hardware kit and covers applications including 2006-2009 Mercedes-Benz E350, 2007-2009 Mercedes-Benz GL320, 2010-2012 Mercedes Benz GL 350, 2010-2011 Mercedes Benz ML 450 and more.

All Bosch premium QuietCast brake pads feature friction formulas specific to the application – semi-metallic, NAO or copper-free ceramic – and include synthetic lubricant in each package.

The three additions to the Bosch Blue Brake Pad line add coverage for 119,000 units in operation. Two of these SKUs include a hardware kit and fit applications that include: 2007-2013 Mercedes-Benz CL550; 2012-2013 Mercedes-Benz S350; 2012-2013 Mercedes-Benz CL 600; 2005-2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK55 AMG; and 2005-2010 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Performance.

Specially designed to deliver quality and performance to the ‘everyday driver,’ Bosch Blue Brake Pads come towel-wrapped for select applications providing added protection and value. The material used is similar to the shop towels that technicians use on a daily basis while working on their customers’ cars.
