ABS 37560 Brake Pads

ABS 37560 Brake Pads

The ABS 37560 Brake Pad Set is engineered to deliver reliable stopping power and durability across a wide range of commercial and passenger vehicles, particularly those equipped with rear disc brakes. Designed as an OEM replacement, this set maintains the original performance characteristics while offering extended service life.

Key Design Features

• High‑Performance Composite: The pads are constructed from a proprietary blend of ceramic and metallic fibers that provide consistent friction coefficients under varying temperatures.
• Low Noise & Vibration: Advanced acoustic dampening technology reduces squeal and chatter, ensuring a quiet ride even during heavy braking.
• Heat Dissipation: Integrated heat sinks within the pad material help disperse thermal energy, preventing brake fade during prolonged use.
• Dust‑Free Formula: The composition minimizes particulate generation, keeping wheels and rotors cleaner for longer periods.

Performance Characteristics

The ABS 37560 set is calibrated to match the original braking system’s torque requirements. Key performance metrics include:

• Stopping Distance: Maintains or improves upon OEM stopping distances across a range of speeds.
• Brake Fade Resistance: Designed to sustain effective braking under high‑temperature conditions, such as steep descents or heavy traffic stops.
• Wear Life: Expected service life exceeds that of many aftermarket alternatives, reducing the frequency of replacement cycles.

Installation Overview

Installing the ABS 37560 brake pads is a straightforward process compatible with standard rear disc brake assemblies. The set includes all necessary components: four pads (two per side), backing plates, and mounting hardware.

1. Lift the vehicle and secure it on jack stands.
2. Remove the wheel to access the rotor.
3. Detach the caliper bracket and carefully slide out the old pads.
4. Place the new pads onto the backing plates, ensuring proper orientation.
5. Reinstall the caliper bracket and secure it with torque specifications.
6. Repeat on the opposite side.
7. Lower the vehicle, rotate the wheels, and perform a brake test to confirm correct operation.

Vehicle Compatibility

The ABS 37560 set is specifically engineered for rear disc brakes on:

• Ford Transit (2007‑2014) – including standard, van, and tourney variants.
• Other Ford models with the 37560 rear axle designation.

Because of its OEM design, the pads fit seamlessly into existing brake systems without requiring modifications to rotors or calipers.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect pads for wear every 10,000 miles or as part of routine service intervals.
• Check rotor surface for scoring; replace if damage exceeds manufacturer guidelines.
• Keep brake fluid levels within specified ranges to maintain hydraulic pressure.
• Avoid riding the brakes on steep grades to reduce heat buildup and extend pad life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the expected lifespan of the ABS 37560 pads?

Typically, they last between 30,000–50,000 miles under normal driving conditions, though actual life may vary with usage patterns.

Can these pads be used on front brakes?

No. They are specifically designed for rear disc brake applications and should not be installed on front systems.

Do I need to replace rotors when installing new pads?

If the existing rotors are in good condition—free of deep scoring or warping—they can be reused. Replace only if they do not meet OEM specifications.

Will these pads affect vehicle handling?

The design maintains original braking characteristics, so handling should remain consistent with factory settings.

Conclusion

The ABS 37560 Brake Pad Set delivers dependable performance, extended durability, and a quiet braking experience. Its OEM compatibility ensures that vehicles—particularly Ford Transit models—retain their original safety standards while benefiting from modern material advancements.
