ABS 36683 Brake Pads

ABS 36683 Brake Pads

The ABS 36683 Brake Pads are a high‑performance, OEM‑grade replacement set designed specifically for the rear disc brakes of select Peugeot models, including the 406, 605, and 607 series. These pads deliver reliable stopping power, durability, and consistent performance under a wide range of driving conditions.

Key Features

• OEM Quality: Manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal braking performance.
• High‑Friction Compound: Engineered with a premium friction material that provides strong initial bite while maintaining long wear life.
Low Noise & Vibration: Designed to minimize squeal and reduce brake noise, offering a quieter driving experience.
• Heat Dissipation: The pad design promotes efficient heat transfer away from the braking surface, reducing fade during heavy use.
• Compatibility: Fits rear disc brakes on Peugeot 406, 605, and 607 models (including coupe, estate, and sedan variants) manufactured between 1997 and 2006.

Installation Overview

Installing the ABS 36683 Brake Pads is straightforward for mechanics familiar with rear disc brake systems. The set typically includes:

1. Four new brake pads (two per side).
2. Brake pad backing plates.
3. Installation hardware such as clips and shims.

During installation, the old pads are removed, the caliper pistons are retracted if necessary, and the new pads are fitted with the provided backing plates. Proper torque specifications for all fasteners should be followed to ensure safety and performance.

Performance Benefits

• Consistent Stopping Power: The engineered friction material maintains a stable coefficient of friction across temperature ranges, providing reliable braking in both wet and dry conditions.
• Extended Wear Life: Compared to many aftermarket alternatives, the ABS 36683 pads exhibit reduced wear rates, translating into longer intervals between replacements.
• Reduced Brake Fade: The pad’s heat management properties help keep brake temperatures within optimal limits, preventing performance loss during spirited driving or heavy braking scenarios.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect pads regularly for wear; replace when the friction surface is reduced to 2–3 mm.
• Check brake fluid levels and top up with the recommended DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 fluid.
• Clean caliper surfaces and pad backing plates before installation to avoid contamination that could affect braking performance.
• After installing new pads, perform a brief test drive to ensure proper engagement and listen for any unusual noises.

Compatibility Summary

The ABS 36683 Brake Pads are specifically engineered for the rear disc brake assemblies of:

• Peugeot 406 (coupe, sedan, estate) – 1997‑2006.
• Peugeot 605 – 1997‑2006.
• Peugeot 607 – 1997‑2006.

These pads are available in a complete set of four pieces, ensuring uniform wear and balanced braking performance across both rear wheels.
