Akebono ProACT Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:ACT714

Designed for braking performance and engineered with noise, vibration and harshness control in mind, the Akebono ProACT Brake Pad Set ACT714 is a rear pad set built around an OE-validated, application-specific ceramic formulation. It is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1995-1999 Oldsmobile Aurora, 1995-1999 Buick Riviera and 1995-1999 Chevrolet Lumina. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

These Akebono ProACT ultra premium ceramic brake pads combine application-specific friction formulations with precision-cut pressure plates and engineered chamfers and slots. The goal is braking performance with NVH control.

• OE-validated ceramic formulations: Each friction compound is application-specific, matched to the vehicles the set is cataloged for.
• Precision-cut pressure plates: Each pad is built on a pressure plate cut with precision.
• Engineered chamfers and slots: These are scientifically engineered to support braking performance and help control noise, vibration and harshness.
• Akebono engineering: Akebono describes itself as the originator of ceramic brake technology and an original-equipment brand of choice. It focuses on NVH analysis and runs technical and R&D centers in Japan, the United States and France.

This rear disc brake pad set presses against the rotor when you apply the brakes. That creates the friction that slows the wheels. Pads wear with every stop, so replacing them once the friction material runs thin helps keep the braking system working as intended. Inspect the rotors and related brake components at the same time, and follow the vehicle service information for installation.
