Installation Guidelines

Proper installation is key to achieving the best performance from your Hawk brake pads. Follow these steps to ensure everything is set up correctly:

  • Securely position the brake pads in the caliper for optimal performance.
  • Check the brake fluid level and flush or replace as necessary.
  • Inspect all hydraulic components for wear and tear.
  • Examine the rotor for deep grooves or scoring; resurface or replace if needed.
  • If resurfacing isn't required, remove any contamination from previous pads by sanding the rotors with 130-grit sandpaper. Clean the surface with soap and water afterward to eliminate oil, grease, and brake fluid.
  • Ensure calipers are free to move and lubricate as necessary.
