PowerStop Z47-1683 Disc Brake Pad Set - Front
PowerStop Z47 MD and Fleet Brake Pads
PowerStop Z47 MD and Fleet brake pads are built for medium-duty and last-mile vehicles that run at full GVW on a daily basis. The semi-metallic, carbon-fiber-infused friction formula is aimed at consistent stopping performance, reduced downtime, and lower cost-per-mile in severe-duty service. Part number Z47-1683 is a performance-grade disc brake pad set with hardware kit and pad shims.
Key Features
- Semi-metallic friction material with carbon-fiber reinforcement
- Performance-grade pad set for medium-duty and fleet braking demands
- Slotted design for improved pad behavior under load
- Chamfered edges and scorched friction surface for more consistent break-in
- Mechanical friction attachment to the backing plate for added shear resistance
- Stainless-steel mounting hardware included
- Pad shims included
- Outer pad thickness: 19.8 mm; inner pad thickness: 19.8 mm
Product Details
The Power Stop Z47 MD and Fleet line focuses on severe-duty braking for vehicles that spend long hours in service and carry heavy loads. Z47-1683 uses a semi-metallic compound infused with carbon fiber to strengthen the pad material and support long service life in demanding fleet use. The friction material is mechanically attached to the backing plate for high shear resistance, while the slotted, chamfered, and scorched design supports predictable pedal response and easier pad bedding. This part cross-references Centric Parts (e.g., 105.16830, 106.16830) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Brake fade during repeated stops in heavy-duty service
- Premature pad wear from full-GVW operation
- Noise and uneven contact during brake break-in
- Reduced uptime caused by frequent brake service intervals
- Higher cost-per-mile in medium-duty fleet maintenance
Installation Notes
Compatible With fleet and medium-duty brake service applications that use this pad shape and hardware configuration. Verify caliper, rotor, and pad dimensions before installation. Clean the caliper bracket and rotor contact surfaces, then follow a proper bedding procedure after installation. Part number Z47-1683 is supplied with stainless-steel hardware and pad shims, which helps streamline a brake job on vehicles such as Ford F-350 and Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD when the application matches the listed pad profile.
Quality Assurance
PowerStop designs the Z47 MD and Fleet series as an upgrade over stock braking components for daily severe-duty use. The pad construction, backing-plate attachment method, and included hardware reflect a focus on durability and serviceability for fleet maintenance programs. Part number Z47-1683 is built for consistent performance in demanding commercial braking environments.
