Brembo OE 21-24 Cadillac Escalade/Suburban/23-24 Chevy Silverado 1500 Ceramic Brake Pad - Front

OE-Grade Ceramic Stopping Power for Large GM Trucks and SUVs

The Brembo P10101N is a Prime Ceramic front brake pad engineered as a direct OE-equivalent replacement for 2021-2024 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, 2021-2024 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe, and 2023-2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, GMC Yukon, and GMC Yukon XL. Brembo P10101N uses a NAO (Non-Asbestos Organic) ceramic friction compound that prioritizes low dust output, noise reduction, and consistent pedal feel across the wide range of daily driving, towing, and highway use these full-size platforms see. These pads measure 189mm wide, 90mm tall, and 18mm thick, fitting directly into the factory caliper brackets with no modifications. The acoustic wear indicator alerts the driver when pad material is approaching its service limit, and the included anti-squeal shim eliminates vibration-induced noise right out of the box. As an ECE R 90 type-approved product, P10101N meets the same friction performance standards as the original pads fitted at the factory. For any owner of a full-size GM truck or SUV looking for a dependable, clean, and quiet front brake pad replacement, the Brembo P10101N is the certified OE-matched choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

These pads fit 2021-2024 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, 2021-2024 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe, and 2023-2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, GMC Yukon, and GMC Yukon XL. See the full fitment table above for specific trim levels and year ranges.

These are OE-equivalent replacement pads. ECE R 90 certification verifies that the friction performance matches factory specifications. They are not a performance upgrade; they are a quality drop-in replacement for the original front pads on these GM platforms.

Yes. The NAO ceramic compound is specifically formulated to minimize dust output compared to the semi-metallic compounds used in many OEM pads. This keeps wheel faces noticeably cleaner between washes, which is particularly visible on the large polished or chrome wheels found on Escalade, Suburban, and Tahoe trims.

The anti-squeal shim is included. Abutment clips and caliper slide hardware are not included. If your existing hardware shows wear, corrosion, or damage, replace it separately with OEM-spec clips before installing new pads.

Brembo backs these pads with a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, typically 24 months or 24,000 miles from the date of purchase, whichever comes first. Warranty claims require proof of purchase and professional installation documentation.

The NAO ceramic compound handles the fade demands of normal towing loads on these full-size vehicles well. For frequent, maximum-rated towing with heavy brake heat cycles, a higher-grade friction compound such as the Brembo Xtra Ceramic series may be more appropriate. For typical daily driving and occasional towing, these pads are fully adequate.

For best results, install new pads on rotors that have been resurfaced or replaced. A clean rotor surface free of glazing, grooves, and contamination ensures even contact patch transfer during bedding and reduces the risk of vibration or noise. Minimum rotor thickness specifications per the vehicle service manual must also be met.

Yes. Perform 8 to 10 moderate stops from approximately 35 mph to 5 mph, allowing 60 seconds of cooling between each stop. Avoid hard stops or panic stops during the first 200 miles. Proper bedding transfers a thin, even friction layer onto the rotor and sets the pad for long-term consistent performance.

Brembo recommends using their Prime line brake rotors alongside these pads for a fully matched front braking system. Pairing pads and rotors from the same product family ensures compatible wear rates, consistent friction behavior, and the most predictable pedal response over the service life of both components.

Brembo supplies original brake systems to more than 50% of new vehicles globally, including many GM platforms. Their OE-grade manufacturing tolerances, ECE R 90 certification, and in-house friction material development set them apart from economy-tier replacements that typically carry no friction certification or traceability to factory specifications.

Installation Notes

1. Safely lift and support the vehicle and remove the front wheels.
2. Remove the brake caliper and hang it from a hook or hanger; do not let it hang from the brake hose.
3. Slide out the old brake pads and inspect the caliper bracket, slides, and abutment clips for wear or corrosion.
4. Clean the caliper bracket contact surfaces thoroughly with a wire brush and brake cleaner.
5. Apply brake caliper lubricant sparingly to the caliper slide pins and abutment clip contact areas; keep lubricant away from the rotor and pad friction surfaces.
6. Install the included anti-squeal shim on the new pads per Brembo assembly instructions.
7. Insert the new pads into the caliper bracket, verifying the wear indicator tab is positioned at the top inboard pad per OEM orientation.
8. Compress the caliper piston fully using a caliper piston tool before reinstalling the caliper over the new pads.
9. Reinstall the caliper bolts and torque to the factory specification for the specific vehicle (refer to the service manual).
10. Reinstall the wheel and torque the lug nuts to factory specification.
11. Pump the brake pedal until firm before moving the vehicle.
12. Perform the bedding procedure: 8 to 10 moderate stops from 35 mph to 5 mph, with 60 seconds of cooling between each stop.
