TitaniuMetallic™ II is a Bendix® exclusive, providing unmatched braking performance right out of the box. By virtually eliminating the need for the traditional break-in period, there’s more time for profitable service work.

The completely reformulated TitaniuMetallic™ II blue coating is more effective than ever before in the initial break-in period. This patented blue coating works by accelerating the pad/rotor burnishing (break-in) process. And, while some manufacturers claim that their pads are ”oven-cured” or “post-cured” so they don’t require burnishing, the fact remains that all disc pads require this process to help ensure optimum performance following disc pad replacement.

Instead of the traditional break-in period of 200 stops, the TitaniuMetallic™II coating wears away after approximately 50 stops, leaving a premium quality Bendix® semi-metallic brake pad that provides miles of outstanding performance across a wide range of operating conditions.

TitaniuMetallic™ II brake pads provide greater stopping power from the very first stop and shorter stopping distances with less pedal effort. They feature an all-new premium quality Bendix® semi-metallic friction formulation, blue TitaniuMetallic™ II coating, high quality shims for quiet braking, TitaniuMetallic™ II also uses both riveted and integrally molded attachment that mirrors the original equipment design.

Organic vs. Ceramic vs. Semi-Metallic - What Is The Difference?

A common question many drivers have when shopping for brake pads is “What is the difference between the different brake pad materials?” While all brake pads will stop your vehicle, there are pros and cons of each pad material:

Installation Tips
  • Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
  • Apply Brake Lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
  • Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
  • Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
  • After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
