How to choose pads
When it comes to commercial vehicles like the 2019 Kenworth T680, brake pad selection is critical for safety and performance. The primary types you'll encounter are ceramic, semi-metallic, and heavy-duty formulations.
Ceramic pads are generally quieter and produce less dust than metallic pads. They offer good performance in a wide range of temperatures and are known for their longer lifespan. However, they may not offer the same initial bite or high-temperature fade resistance as some heavy-duty metallic options, which might be a concern for a heavily loaded truck.
Semi-metallic pads are a popular choice for their excellent stopping power and heat dissipation. They are a good balance between performance and cost. However, they can be noisier and produce more brake dust than ceramic pads. For a truck like the T680, high-quality semi-metallic pads designed for commercial use are often a reliable option.
Heavy-duty (HD) pads are engineered for extreme conditions, offering superior stopping power, fade resistance, and durability under heavy loads and frequent braking. These pads are typically metallic or a blend designed for fleet and commercial applications. They might be noisier and generate more dust, but their robust performance makes them ideal for the demands of a Kenworth T680, especially if it
