The Akebono ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pads, part number ACT536A, are designed for smooth, controlled rear braking. They combine an OE-validated, application-specific ceramic formulation with engineered pad details for braking performance and noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) control. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2002-2004 Honda Civic, 2002-2004 Honda CR-V and 1995-1998 Honda Odyssey. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
- Ceramic formulation: Each ProACT compound is OE-validated and application-specific.
- Precision-cut pressure plates: These are designed as part of the pad's approach to braking performance and NVH control.
- Scientifically engineered chamfers and slots: Their shaping is aimed at braking performance and at helping control noise, vibration and harshness.
- Akebono know-how: Akebono Brake Corporation is known as the originator of ceramic brake technology and is an original equipment brake brand. It focuses on NVH analysis and control and operates technical and R&D centers in Japan, the United States and France.
This rear disc brake pad set is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. For a 1995-1998 Honda Odyssey brake pad job, or on any listed vehicle, replacing the pads on both sides of the axle together is recommended for even, balanced braking. When you install them, inspect the rotors and brake hardware. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct procedure, torque values and whether any fasteners may be reused.
Squealing or grinding, a longer stopping distance, or friction material worn thin are signs the rear pads may need replacing. Inspect the brake system to confirm the cause before you replace parts.
