Amortiguadores de pastillas de freno antisonajeros

Alleviates brake pad rattle.
If you compare most high performance brake pads to original pads,
you will find the backing plates of the pads to be smaller on the high performance items. The reason for this is because high performance pads are designed to be used at extreme temperatures. The backing plate of these pads expands further then what you’d expect with pads for road use.

Besides that.. as the Elise or Exige is a relatively light weight car, the temperatures of these pads normally don’t go up as far as when being used on heavy saloon cars. The backplates won’t expand that much and you might experience an annoying rattle from the front brakes while driving your car.
Lotus has anticipated on the above and stuck small patches of rubber inside the front brake calipers. This rubber tends to wear over time, or even completely disappears.

Our adhesive anti rattle brakepad buffers are a high grade, adhesive backed material which simply needs to be stuck in the same location as the original buffers. They’re very easy to install, especially when you’re replacing the brakepads.
