Overview
The Baer Brakes D0784 is a set of four Claw ceramic front brake pads for 2003–2009 Hummer H2 and 2002–2006 Chevrolet Avalanche 2500 trucks, plus several other GM full-size trucks and vans for the front axle. The ceramic compound is designed for strong braking with minimal noise and dust.
The ceramic compound is long-lasting, consistent and quick to break in, with low dust. Each set carries abutment clips and noise suppression hardware, depending on the application. The pad suits daily drivers who want performance without harsh road manners.
Key features
- Ceramic friction compound with consistent performance and minimal dust
- Long pad life with low rotor wear.
- Slotted friction face
- Abutment clips and noise suppression hardware, depending on the application
- Wear indicator attached
- Black backing plate
Pad wear and rotor care
Pad wear on a full-size truck depends on how it is driven. Towing, long grades and frequent stops heat the pads and rotors faster than highway cruising does. Ceramic compounds handle that heat steadily, but they still wear, and the rotor face needs checking whenever the pads are changed. Matching the rotor condition to the new pad keeps braking smooth from the first stop.
Hardware deserves attention too. Abutment clips hold the pad in the caliper bracket and control movement, so worn or corroded clips can cause rattle or uneven contact. Clean the bracket surfaces, check the clips against the new set, and apply brake lubricant where the instructions direct it. Fresh mounting hardware helps a new pad seat evenly.
- Inspect rotors for scoring or heat marks at each pad change
- Replace clips that are bent, cracked or corroded
- Bed in new pads gradually before heavy towing
