Barbaro Brake Pad D3160M Front for Ford Ranger 2.2 / 3.2 T6 & Mazda BT-50 (2011)

Barbaro Brake Pad D3160M Front for Ford Ranger 2.2 / 3.2 T6 and Mazda BT-50 (2011) is built for trucks that see mixed city, highway, and load-carrying use. Many owners complain about stock pads fading on steep roads or wearing fast when hauling tools. This pad uses a better friction mix to keep stopping consistent without compromising rotor health. We install these often for fleet trucks and workshop partners who want reliable braking without chasing the most expensive performance parts. This option includes: - Semi-metallic friction compound tuned for truck weight and heat control. - Positive cold and hot bite for city and highway braking. - Chamfered and slotted pad profile to reduce noise and help dust escape. - Noise control shims to minimize squeal with proper bedding-in. - OE-spec backing plate for correct caliper fitment on Ranger T6 and BT-50. Compound quality ensures stable friction at higher temperatures, especially during hill descents or towing. Slot and chamfer design help airflow and release brake dust to reduce glazing, which is a common cause of pedal vibration. Thickness and density are balanced for longer service life, and it works well with stock rotors. For fleet or workshop collaborations, this pad is a good baseline because it keeps maintenance predictable and reduces rotor damage, which saves cost over time. Fitment covers Ford Ranger 2.2 / 3.2 T6 and Mazda BT-50 (2011) with front disc setup matching D3160M sizing. Material density is made for light off-road, load-carrying, and daily use. No racing or extreme downhill abuse expected; if a customer intends that, better to upgrade to higher-temp pads. Just being upfront to avoid mismatched expectations. Users benefit from more consistent braking feel, slower wear, and better heat handling than cheap basic pads. Less rotor scoring means lower long-term maintenance cost. Quality tier is above entry-level but still reasonable for workshops and fleets that want to offer something solid without jumping to premium racing compounds. Customers who care about safety and durability will appreciate that. Warranty covers manufacturing defects only. It does not cover wear rate, dust level, vibration, noise, or rotor condition. All these depend on driving style, road conditions, installation, and bedding-in. If bedding-in is skipped, noise or uneven wear can happen, and that is not considered a defect. If you want a quality pad for Ranger and BT-50 trucks without overselling the customer, this is a safe choice. We are open to workshop partnerships, bulk orders, and technical alignment so the value proposition remains clear.
