Step 2 in a safe area take the car up to a speed of around 35 miles per hour and apply the brakes only using moderate pressure.
Ceramic brakes break in period.
The process works to put a layer of material onto the friction surface of the rotor from the brake pad.
5 moderate to aggressive stops from 40 mph down to 10 mph in rapid succession without letting the brakes cool and do not come to a complete stop.
This layer known as a transfer layer enhances the friction generating properties of your pads and rotors improving your brakes performance and extending their lifespan.
Simply put the bed in process aka break in conditioning or burnishing deposits an even layer of material from the brake pad onto the friction surface of the disc rotor.
Break in your powerstop brakes as follows.
No high speed stops and or braking under heavy loads that could result in glazed or otherwise damaged linings.
Once those brake pads and rotors are mounted it is essential to properly break them in.
This helps break in the brake pads at an even pace and prevents overexerting the brake pads.
It is critical to follow cool down procedures to avoid damaging nao ceramic and semi met friction material as well as the rotor drum.
This procedure will prevent the pads from getting too hot until the resins have fully cured.
Allow at least 30 seconds between brake applications for the brake pads or shoes to cool down.
If you re forced to stop either shift into neutral or give room in front so you can allow the vehicle to roll slightly while waiting for the light.
30 gradual stops from 30 mph with 30 seconds in between each stop for the brakes to cool.
