Overview
The Baer Brakes Claw Rotor and Pad Combo Kit, part number 31506-1509, is a front brake kit that pairs slotted, drilled and zinc-plated cast iron rotors with Baer Claw ceramic street pads. Baer Brakes presents it as a way to improve braking performance and appearance at an affordable price, and the manufacturer fitment list currently shows the 2011–2015 Nissan Titan.
The kit is a direct replacement for the factory front brakes on the vehicles it covers. It balances dynamic performance, appearance and durability for daily drivers, and it is designed for many cars, trucks and SUVs. The rotors are one-piece, full cast with a directional brake surface.
Key features
- Slotted, drilled and zinc-plated rotors for improved performance and a bright appearance.
- Baer Claw ceramic performance street pads supplied as a matched set with the rotors.
- Direct bolt-on replacement with no modifications required.
- Stainless-steel abutment and noise suppression hardware included.
- One-piece, full cast rotor construction with a directional brake surface.
- Premium grade, supplied as a complete kit.
Brake wear and inspection
Brake rotors and pads wear together, and a worn pad can score a rotor surface, so replacing both as a matched set helps the braking surfaces bed in evenly. Slotted and drilled rotors are designed to shed gas and debris from the pad surface, which supports consistent contact during repeated stops. These features matter most on heavier vehicles that carry loads or tow, where brakes run hotter.
Inspect the pads and rotors at every wheel service. Signs of wear include a pulsing pedal, grinding or squealing, a pull to one side, and a visible lip on the rotor edge. Because the rotors are directional, confirm the brake surface is oriented correctly on each side before final assembly. Keep the caliper slide pins clean and lubricated so the pads release fully after each stop.
- Check pad thickness at each wheel service
- Look for heat cracks or scoring on the rotor face
- Clean and lubricate caliper slide pins during pad changes

Installation notes
The kit is a direct bolt-on replacement, and no modifications are described. Abutment clips are included, but brake lubricant is not, so have a suitable lubricant ready for the hardware. Front brakes are safety-critical, so have the kit installed by someone experienced with brake work.
