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 Sport 440 Snowmobile (1983)
The 1983 Polaris Sport 440 was a robust snowmobile, known for its reliable performance. This model was powered by a 432cc Fuji EC44-2PM-5100 fan-cooled twin-cylinder engine, featuring a bore and stroke of 67.72 x 60 mm and equipped with two Mikuni VM34SS slide carburetors. While specific horsepower figures for this exact model are not explicitly detailed, similar Polaris Fuji twin engines from the 1980s were noted for producing around 80 horsepower, suggesting comparable output for the Sport 440. The 1983 Sport 440 was offered as a single, distinct model without multiple trims or mid-cycle generation changes, ensuring a consistent configuration for that year. Frequently Asked Questions:
