Akebono ProACT Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:ACT536A
Dial in controlled, consistent braking with the Akebono ProACT ceramic brake pads (P/N ACT636), a rear disc brake pad set engineered for braking performance and NVH control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1999-2005 Mazda Miata, 1997-2003 Ford Escort and 1997-1999 Mercury Tracer. These Akebono ProACT ultra premium ceramic brake pads use OE-validated, application-specific ceramic friction formulations designed for optimal braking performance and NVH control on the rear axle.
Akebono, the originator of ceramic brake technology and an original-equipment brake supplier, builds the ProACT line with a focus on NVH analysis and control. For even, balanced braking, it's best to fit the pads on both sides of the axle at the same time. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of vehicles and engine details.
