• Further benefits: long lifespan, very smooth performance, and conformity to ECE R90 standards for braking performance.

• Friction-material wear: Over time, the pad material thins, reducing the effective contact area and friction coefficient. When the pad becomes too thin, stopping distance increases and performance deteriorates.
• Thermal overload or glazing: Under repeated heavy braking or mismatched pad/disc pairing, the surface can harden or glaze, losing its ideal friction characteristics—leading to fade or uneven braking.
• Uneven pad-to-disc contact: If pads don’t make full uniform contact due to disc warpage, caliper misalignment, or incorrect installation, only portions of the pad carry load, which accelerates wear or creates hotspots.
• Corrosion or contaminants: Although the pb:z line offers optimal corrosion protection, external factors (salt, water ingress, lack of maintenance) can degrade surfaces, impairing pad stability and life.
• Loss of comfort/damping features: If design features like damping plates or proper backing-plates are compromised, then vibration, noise or uneven wear may emerge—reducing the pad’s effective lifespan or creating failure symptoms.

• Maintain stopping power and safety: To retain predictable braking distances, consistent pedal feel and full system responsiveness, the pad set must operate within specification. Once friction material wears beyond safe limits, system performance suffers.
• Protect the rest of the braking system: Worn or failing pads can lead to disc damage, caliper piston overheating, or uneven rotor wear—resulting in higher repair costs down the line.

What they do
Zimmermann’s R&D:z brake pads employ a special friction compound containing organic fibers, which forms a thin, protective transfer layer between the brake disc and pad during braking.

This innovative layer:

• Improves pedal feel and stopping precision.
  
• Provides high resistance of the friction coefficient across varying temperatures.
  
• Minimizes abrasion and dust creation, keeping rims cleaner for longer.
  
• Offers smoother, quieter operation with significantly less vibration.
  
• Enhances braking comfort and heat resistance for consistent, fade-free performance.

Each braking cycle renews this friction layer, continuously maintaining optimal grip and reducing wear — ensuring every stop feels as confident as the first.

Why brake pads fail

Even advanced pads such as the Zimmermann range can deteriorate over time if not properly maintained or installed:

• Material Wear: Friction compounds naturally thin with mileage, reducing stopping power and increasing braking distance.
  
• Thermal Overload or Glazing: Heavy, repeated braking can overheat pads, hardening the surface and diminishing friction performance.
  
• Uneven Disc Contact: Poor fitment or warped rotors can cause localized wear, vibrations, and noise.
  
• Contamination or Corrosion: Exposure to dirt, salt, or moisture can compromise pad integrity, accelerating wear.
  
• Old-Type Materials: Non-optimized compounds create excessive dark dust and noise compared with Zimmermann’s advanced dust-reduced formulation.

Why they should be replaced

• Maintain Braking Efficiency: Replacing pads before the friction material wears out ensures maximum safety and consistent stopping distances.
• Preserve Wheel Appearance: The Zimmermann dust-reduced compound produces lighter, brighter dust that’s nearly invisible, helping rims stay clean. Enhance Driving Comfort: New pads eliminate brake squeal and vibration, restoring smooth pedal response.
• Reduce Environmental Impact: Less abrasion means fewer particulates released into the environment — an eco-friendly braking solution.
• Prolong Brake System Life: Lower wear rates protect both discs and calipers, saving on long-term maintenance costs.

In short, timely replacement with Zimmermann pads keeps your braking system precise, quiet, and clean — for confident, sustainable performance.
