Built for a consistent pedal feel and responsive stopping, the Dynamic Friction DFC 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads, part number 1552-0601-00, are a direct-fit front replacement for the 1993-2000 Ford Taurus and the 1994-2000 Mercury Sable. This front disc brake pad set uses a ceramic formulation based on selected original equipment manufacturer formulations, and the compound is formulated for each axle on every vehicle it covers.
When you press the brake pedal, the caliper clamps the pads against the rotor, and the friction that creates slows the vehicle. If you are planning a brake pad replacement on a 1993-2000 Ford Taurus, signs the pads may need replacing include grinding or squealing under braking, longer stopping distances, or friction material that looks thin on inspection. Check the rotors while the wheels are off, and replace the pads on both sides of the axle together for even braking. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment details.
