Description
Pad Purpose:
- The purpose of any brake pad is to push or squeeze against the brake drum or disc to slow it down. Softer brake pads "bite" into the rotor and stop better but tend to wear out faster.
Stopping Power:
- The stopping power of ceramic and metallic pads varies by temperature. Ceramic pads tend to stop better when very hot and metallic operate better in the cooler range.
Fade Resistance:
- A ceramic pad's strongest point is its ability to resist "brake fade", or the tendency to lose performance during repeated use and subsequent heating.
Wear:
- Though both pads tend to wear at similar rates, the ceramic's softer material surface helps prevent damage to metal rotors.
Noise and Dust:
- Ceramic pads vibrate at a higher frequency than the human ear can detect, and thus appear quieter in operation than metallic. Also, ceramic pads don't cause the black "brake dust" deposits like metallic pads.

Vehicle Information
Polaris Indy 340 Snowmobile (1999-2007)
The Polaris Indy 340, produced between 1999 and 2007, was a popular snowmobile model known for its reliability and simplicity. It consistently featured a 339cc fan-cooled twin-cylinder engine, generally rated at approximately 36 horsepower. This 2-stroke, reed valve, carbureted engine remained a defining characteristic throughout its production, ensuring predictable performance for trail enthusiasts. While the 339cc engine remained largely consistent, the chassis underwent a notable evolution. Earlier models utilized the traditional “Indy” chassis, while later models, starting in 2004 and becoming predominant by 2006, transitioned to the more rugged “EDGE” chassis. The “LX” trims that appeared in 2007 were also part of the EDGE chassis lineup, succeeding the “Classic” versions. FAQ:
