Bring low-dust, low-noise stopping to your daily driver with the PowerStop Z26 Street Performance Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pad Set (P/N Z26-1001B, also written Z261001B). This is a front-axle disc brake pad set that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2017-2021 Honda Civic — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific coverage. Its carbon-fiber-infused ceramic friction compound is engineered to strengthen the pad and deliver strong, confident stops during everyday street driving.
- Carbon-fiber ceramic formula: a low-dust compound infused with carbon fiber for firm, consistent street stopping power.
- Quiet, refined braking: chamfered and slotted pads plus multi-layer stainless-steel shims help dissipate heat and keep braking virtually noise-free.
- Powder-coated backing plate: resists rust and corrosion for extended pad life; positive mold technology promotes consistent wear.
- Ready to install: includes premium stainless-steel hardware and ceramic brake lubricant, and the surface is thermal-scorched for a fast break-in.
Brake pads are wear items and show it through squealing, reduced bite, or a grinding feel as the friction material thins. This set covers the front axle; replacing both front sides together as a matched pair helps ensure even, balanced braking.
