Centric 105.18301 Disc Brake Pad Set - Front
Centric Posi-Quiet Ceramic Brake Pads
Centric Posi-Quiet Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Sets are built for front brake service on select Smart models, including the 2016 Smart Fortwo and 2016-2018 Smart Forfour. Part number 105.18301 uses a ceramic friction formula with integrally molded attachment and included shims to support consistent braking performance and reduced pad vibration.
Key Features
- Ceramic friction material for smooth, quiet braking
- Positive molding process for consistent friction density across the pad
- Precision-cut or shaved backing plates for caliper fitment
- Mechanically attached shims to help reduce noise and vibration
- Scorched friction surface to accelerate break-in
- Asbestos-free formulation
- Prepared for front brake applications on select Smart vehicles
Product Details
The Centric Posi-Quiet line focuses on OE-style construction details that matter in daily driving. For part number 105.18301, Centric uses a positive molding process similar to original equipment manufacturing methods, helping maintain even material density for more uniform wear and braking feel. The ceramic compound, integrally molded friction attachment, and included shims work together to support quiet operation on the front axle of the Smart Fortwo and Smart Forfour.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Brake squeal during light or moderate stops
- Pad vibration that can create noise in the caliper
- Uneven pad wear from inconsistent friction density
- Extended break-in time after brake service
- Front brake replacement needs on Smart Fortwo and Smart Forfour models
Installation Notes
Verify front axle fitment before installation. Part number 105.18301 does not include mounting hardware or a pad wear sensor, and it is not prepared for a wear sensor. Inspect rotors, caliper slides, and brake fluid condition during service to help ensure proper pad performance. Clean all contact points before installing the pads and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedure.
Quality Assurance
Centric manufactures the Posi-Quiet line with OE-style positive molding, scorched friction material, and noise-reducing shim design details to support consistent braking characteristics and dependable fitment on the listed Smart applications.
