Overview
The Baer Brakes D1565B is a set of front Claw brake pads for the 2012–2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD, the 2012–2019 GMC Sierra 2500 HD and 3500 HD, the 2012–2021 Nissan NV1500, NV2500 and NV3500, and the 2016–2022 Nissan Titan XD. Each set contains four pads.
The Claw is designed to give steady braking power with minimum noise and dust. It uses a ceramic compound that Baer Brakes describes as formulated for long-lasting, consistent performance and a quick, easy break-in. The pads are premium grade, slotted, and have a black backing plate.
Key features
- OE replacement pad with consistent wear and performance and minimal noise and dust
- Premium high-friction ceramic compound for long pad life
- Long pad life with low rotor wear
- Stainless steel abutment and anti-rattle hardware included with most applications
- Slotted pad with a black backing plate, sold as a set of four
Heavy-duty front brake care
Front brakes on heavy-duty pickups and vans do most of the stopping when a loaded truck slows down, so the pads and rotors see high heat. Ceramic compounds handle that heat well and produce less dust than many alternatives, but they still wear. Front pads on these trucks wear faster when towing, when hauling heavy loads or when driving in hilly terrain.
Routine checks are simple. Look at the pad thickness through the wheel, watch the wear indicator and inspect the rotor surface for grooves or blue marks. Clean the slide pins at each service and confirm the caliper moves freely. Ceramic pads need a series of progressive stops after fitting, so plan a short bedding-in drive before any heavy use.
- Check pad thickness and the wear indicator at each tire rotation
- Inspect rotors for grooves, blue marks and minimum thickness
- Clean and lubricate slide pins whenever the pads are changed

Vehicle fitment
It fits the 2012–2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD, the 2012–2019 GMC Sierra 2500 HD and 3500 HD, the 2012–2021 Nissan NV1500, NV2500 and NV3500, and the 2016–2022 Nissan Titan XD on the front axle. The 3500 HD fit covers both single and dual rear wheel trucks.
Silverado and Sierra 1500 models are not in this list, and Silverado and Sierra HD model years after 2019 are not covered. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Abutment clips and mounting hardware are included, so the pads can be fitted with the supplied parts. Check the rotors for scoring and minimum thickness, and clean the caliper slide pins so the pads move freely. Ceramic pads still need bedding in, so make a series of progressive stops after fitting, and watch the attached wear indicator during routine tire rotations.
What’s included
One set of four front Claw pads with stainless steel abutment and noise suppression hardware, and mounting hardware.
Not included: brake lubricant.
