R1 Concepts Ceramic Series Brake Pads & Hardware Kit - 2025-2026 Ford Maverick - Front
SKU: rnc2310-1818-01
Overview
The R1 Concepts RNC Ceramic Brake Pads (Part #2310-1818-01) are a direct OE-replacement front brake pad set engineered specifically for the 2025–2026 Ford Maverick w/Dual Piston Front Calipers. Designed for daily drivers, commuters, and light truck owners who demand quieter, cleaner, and more consistent stopping power than stock, these pads deliver an immediate upgrade over factory organic or semi-metallic pads — without any vehicle modifications required. This hardware-included kit makes your next brake job a complete, professional-grade service in one box.
Key Features & Benefits
- Advanced Ceramic Compound — Crafted from a proprietary blend of ceramic fibers, non-ferrous filaments, and bonding compounds compressed under high pressure, delivering consistent friction and superior stopping power across all temperatures and conditions.
- Ultra-Low Dust Formula — The low-dust, asbestos-free ceramic formulation keeps your Maverick's wheels significantly cleaner than conventional organic or semi-metallic pads — less cleanup, better curb appeal.
- Noise-Free Engineering — Rubber-Steel-Rubber (RSR) multi-layer shims are included and precision-fitted to eliminate brake squeal, chatter, and vibration for a quiet, smooth pedal feel every time.
- Excellent Fade Resistance — The ceramic formula excels at heat dissipation, preventing brake fade during repeated stops, highway driving, towing light loads, or stop-and-go traffic — perfect for the Maverick's daily work-truck mission.
- Long-Lasting Durability — Harder than organic alternatives, R1 ceramic pads are gentler on rotors and outlast many OEM pad sets, giving you a strong return on investment over the life of your Maverick.
- OEM-Matched Fitment (FMSI D1818) — Engineered to FMSI pad size D1818 (193mm L × 65mm W × 18mm T) for a precise, no-modification direct bolt-on installation on 2025–2026 Ford Maverick front axles.
- CARB & Low-Copper Compliant — Meets California and Washington State low-copper restrictions for 2021 and 2025, making these pads road-legal nationwide including the strictest emissions states.
- Hardware Kit Included — Comes complete with all necessary installation hardware (clips, shims, and abutment hardware), ensuring a full-service brake pad replacement without extra trips to the parts store.
What's Included
- 4× R1 Concepts RNC Ceramic Front Brake Pads (inner and outer, both sides)
- Rubber-Steel-Rubber (RSR) noise-dampening shims
- Complete hardware kit (caliper bracket clips and abutment hardware)

Fitment & Compatibility
These front ceramic brake pads are a direct, no-modification-required fitment for the following vehicles:
- 2025 Ford Maverick — W/ HD Brake Package
- 2026 Ford Maverick — W/ HD Brake Package
Installation
These pads are designed for direct bolt-on installation with no machining, drilling, or vehicle modification required. All necessary hardware is included for a complete front brake service. Installation is suitable for mechanically-inclined DIYers with basic hand tools and a floor jack; professional installation is always recommended if you are unsure. Important: A proper brake pad bed-in (break-in) procedure is strongly recommended after installation — perform 6–8 moderate stops from 35–40 mph with adequate cool-down between each stop to transfer an even friction layer to the rotor surface and achieve optimal pad performance and longevity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these pads CARB compliant? Yes. R1 Concepts RNC Ceramic Brake Pads meet the low-copper content requirements mandated by California and Washington State for 2021 and 2025, making them fully compliant for use in all 50 states.
Do I need new rotors when installing these pads? Not necessarily. If your existing rotors are within minimum thickness specifications and show no deep scoring or warping, these pads can be installed on your current rotors. Always inspect rotors before installation and replace if worn beyond OEM spec.
Are these better than OEM Ford brake pads for my Maverick? R1 Concepts ceramic pads are engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications, with improvements in low-dust output, noise reduction, fade resistance, and overall longevity compared to typical factory organic or semi-metallic pads.
