ATE brake pads from Continental Automotive Technologies are designed to match the specifications of the original equipment pad. And that includes the pad friction material.
To make those precise matches, the ATE line offers 150 formulations, in both semi-metallic or ceramic. The slight variations between those 150 options allow for the perfect match to each vehicle's braking performance.
That precise fit carries over to ATE's products for the aftermarket, which helps ensure a vehicle's braking performance doesn't change from the original parts when it's time to replace worn brake pads.
