Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

Installing the ABS A.B.S 35064 Brake Pads is straightforward and can be completed with basic hand tools. Follow these steps for optimal performance:

1. Safety First: Secure the vehicle on a flat surface, engage the parking brake, and place wheel chocks.
2. Remove the Wheel: Use a lug wrench or impact gun to loosen and remove wheel nuts, then lift the vehicle with a jack and secure it on stands.
3. Access the Brake Assembly: Remove the caliper bracket or cover to expose the brake pads.
4. Extract Old Pads: Slide out the worn pads and note their orientation.
5. Install New Pads: Place the new pads into the caliper, ensuring the wear indicator aligns with the metal backing plate.
6. Reassemble: Reinstall the caliper bracket, tighten nuts to manufacturer torque specifications.
7. Reinstall Wheel: Put the wheel back on, hand‑tighten nuts, lower the vehicle, and torque to spec.
8. Brake Fluid Check: Verify brake fluid level and top up if necessary.
9. Test Drive: Perform a short drive to allow pads to seat and confirm smooth braking.

Performance Characteristics

The ABS A.B.S 35064 Brake Pads excel in several critical areas:

• Stopping Distance: Consistently reduces stopping distance by up to 15% compared with standard pads on similar vehicles.
• Heat Management: The porous core allows heat to escape efficiently, maintaining pad integrity during repeated hard braking.
• Noise Reduction: Advanced surface texture minimizes squeal, especially during wet conditions.
• Wear Life: Typical lifespan ranges from 30,000 to 45,000 miles depending on driving habits and conditions.

Maintenance Tips

To preserve the longevity and performance of your ABS A.B.S 35064 Brake Pads, consider the following maintenance practices:

• Regularly inspect brake fluid levels and replace every 2 years.
• Check for uneven pad wear; if detected, replace the entire set to avoid brake system imbalance.
• Keep wheel rims clean from brake dust and debris to prevent corrosion.
• Use a brake cleaner spray before reassembly to remove any residual oils or contaminants.

Compatibility and Vehicle Fitment

The ABS A.B.S 35064 Brake Pads are engineered to fit a variety of front‑wheel disc brake systems. The most common applications include:

• Mercedes‑Benz C-Class (various model years)
• Mercedes‑Benz GLC
• Mercedes‑Benz CLS
• Other European vehicles with the 35064 disc brake specification

Always verify fitment against your vehicle’s service manual or a trusted parts database before installation.
