Every time you brake, enormous forces and temperatures of up to 900 degrees come into play, asking the ultimate question of design, materials and assembly.
Mercedes-Benz genuine brake parts are designed and tested with the high speeds and extreme stresses of German Autobahn conditions in mind, as well as performance in everyday traffic situations. This testing ensures their ability to bring you, and two tons of accelerated machinery to a safe and sure stop, time and time again, under both routine and emergency conditions.
Brake wear is a normal and necessary result of providing premium braking efficiency. The material and composition of Mercedes-Benz brake pads are specifically developed to provide a balance between high and low speed braking performance and brake-dust reduction. After all, there may be no more important function of your Mercedes-Benz than the effectiveness of its brakes when called upon in an emergency to maximise the safety of you and your passengers.
