Zimmermann’s brake pad range is produced with quality engineering, ensuring optimal braking comfort, minimal wear, and dependable stopping power. Every set undergoes a development process lasting up to 3 years and thousands of test miles, guaranteeing outstanding performance and reliability across diverse driving conditions.

What They Do
The Zimmermann brake pads are designed to convert kinetic energy into thermal energy during braking, delivering controlled deceleration with minimal noise and consistent pedal feedback.

Key features and benefits:

• Tailored friction compounds: Formulated using up to 25 different raw materials for optimal grip, balance, and fade resistance.
• Vehicle-specific design: Each pad set is tuned to match the braking characteristics of its intended vehicle type.
• High comfort & low noise: Chamfered edges, anti-vibration layers, and precision backing plates ensure quiet operation.
• Long service life: Durable friction surfaces and quality binding ensure minimal wear, even under demanding conditions.
• Corrosion-resistant components: Protective coatings safeguard against rust, ensuring long-term performance.
• ECE R90 conformity: Certified to meet European safety and braking standards.

Zimmermann’s standard pads are trusted by professionals and enthusiasts alike for smooth, predictable braking and a refined driving experience.

Why Brake Pads Fail

• Even the best pads will wear over time. Common causes of brake pad failure include:
• Friction material wear: Continuous heat and pressure gradually thin the pad surface, reducing braking power.
• Glazing or overheating: Prolonged heavy braking can harden the pad surface, decreasing friction efficiency.
• Uneven contact or alignment issues: Warped rotors or improper installation can cause uneven wear and vibration.
• Contamination: Dust, oil, or road debris can penetrate the braking surface, reducing grip and causing squeal.
• Neglected maintenance: Worn pads increase rotor wear, leading to higher repair costs and potential safety risks.

Regular inspection and timely replacement ensure consistent braking performance and protect your vehicle’s entire braking system.

Why They Should Be Replaced

• Replacing worn or underperforming brake pads with the Zimmermann set ensures your vehicle maintains:
• Reliable braking performance: Fresh pads restore maximum friction, improving stopping distance and response time.
• Driving comfort & quiet operation: Maintains Zimmermann’s hallmark of smooth, low-noise braking.
• Protection for brake discs: Prevents premature rotor wear and costly component damage.
• Consistent safety: Guarantees even pressure distribution and stable pedal feel in all conditions.
• Efficiency & lifespan: New pads maintain proper heat dissipation and energy transfer, extending both pad and disc life.

Zimmermann’s precision-engineered standard brake pads ensure reliability, safety, and long-lasting value for everyday and performance-oriented drivers alike.

What they do
Zimmermann’s R&D:z brake pads employ a special friction compound containing organic fibers, which forms a thin, protective transfer layer between the brake disc and pad during braking.

This innovative layer:

• Improves pedal feel and stopping precision.
  
• Provides high resistance of the friction coefficient across varying temperatures.
  
• Minimizes abrasion and dust creation, keeping rims cleaner for longer.
  
• Offers smoother, quieter operation with significantly less vibration.
  
• Enhances braking comfort and heat resistance for consistent, fade-free performance.

Each braking cycle renews this friction layer, continuously maintaining optimal grip and reducing wear — ensuring every stop feels as confident as the first.

Why brake pads fail
Even advanced pads such as the Zimmermann range can deteriorate over time if not properly maintained or installed:

• Material Wear: Friction compounds naturally thin with mileage, reducing stopping power and increasing braking distance.
  
• Thermal Overload or Glazing: Heavy, repeated braking can overheat pads, hardening the surface and diminishing friction performance.
• Uneven Disc Contact: Poor fitment or warped rotors can cause localized wear, vibrations, and noise.
• Contamination or Corrosion: Exposure to dirt, salt, or moisture can compromise pad integrity, accelerating wear.
• Old-Type Materials: Non-optimized compounds create excessive dark dust and noise compared with Zimmermann’s advanced dust-reduced formulation.

Why they should be replaced

• Maintain Braking Efficiency: Replacing pads before the friction material wears out ensures maximum safety and consistent stopping distances.
• Preserve Wheel Appearance: The Zimmermann dust-reduced compound produces lighter, brighter dust that’s nearly invisible, helping rims stay clean. 
• Enhance Driving Comfort: New pads eliminate brake squeal and vibration, restoring smooth pedal response.
• Reduce Environmental Impact: Less abrasion means fewer particulates released into the environment — an eco-friendly braking solution.
• Prolong Brake System Life: Lower wear rates protect both discs and calipers, saving on long-term maintenance costs.

In short, timely replacement with Zimmermann pads keeps your braking system precise, quiet, and clean — for confident, sustainable performance.

What They Do
The Zimmermann pads are precision-engineered components designed to convert your vehicle’s motion into reliable stopping power through controlled friction between the pad and brake disc.

• Performance-Tailored Design: Every vehicle has its own brake system characteristics, and these pads are specifically formulated to suit your car’s individual braking requirements.
• Advanced Friction Mixtures: Up to 25 raw materials ensure balanced performance across temperature, humidity, and load variations.
• Manufacturing Precision: Zimmermann controls temperature, pressure, and time during production to achieve consistent friction stability and pedal feel.

• Corrosion-Resistant Finish: Enhanced coating technology protects metal surfaces from rust and wear, extending overall lifespan.

In short, these pads are crafted for drivers who value long service life, smooth braking, and consistent safety at a competitive cost.

Why Brake Pads Fail
Even premium pads degrade over time due to natural wear and driving conditions.

Common causes include:

• Friction-Material Wear: Continuous use thins the pad, reducing braking effectiveness and increasing stopping distance.
• Thermal Overload / Glazing: Excessive heat from prolonged braking or aggressive driving hardens the pad surface, leading to fade and vibration.
• Uneven Contact: If discs are warped or the pad fitment is imperfect, surface contact becomes inconsistent, causing hotspots and premature wear.
  
• Contamination & Corrosion: Salt, dirt, and moisture can compromise pad integrity and performance.
• Inferior Substitutes: Non-optimized materials lack Zimmermann’s friction balance and fade resistance, resulting in noise, dust, or shorter life.

Why They Should Be Replaced

• Preserve Braking Efficiency: Fresh pads restore original stopping performance, keeping braking distances short and predictable.
• Maintain Comfort and Quietness: The pb:z pad structure minimizes noise and vibration—worn pads remove that refinement.
• Protect Brake Discs: Worn pads can damage rotors through metal-to-metal contact, increasing replacement costs.
• Sustain Safety and Control: New pads maintain stable friction coefficients across heat cycles, ensuring consistent pedal feel and fade-free braking.
• Ensure Compliance: Pads conforming to ECE R90 regulations preserve the braking behavior your vehicle was designed to deliver.

Replacing worn pads with the Zimmermann Premium Brake Pad Set ensures both optimal performance and longevity—without compromise.
