Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:1551-1551-00
Designed for a consistent pedal feel and sharp brake response, the Dynamic Friction Company DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads, part number 1551-0031-00, use a low-metallic friction formulation that clamps against the brake rotor to slow the wheel. They fit many vehicles, among them the 1961-1966 Mercedes-Benz 300SE, 1965-1972 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL and 1968-1973 Mercedes-Benz 280SE. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
This disc brake pad set is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. It is cataloged for front and rear positions, depending on the vehicle.
Worn pads can show up as squealing or grinding, a longer stopping distance or visibly thin friction material. If worn pads are the cause, this set replaces them. Inspect the rotors and other brake components at the same time, and replace the pads on both sides of the axle together for even, balanced braking.
