Brembo engineers this compound to meet or exceed the performance of the original equipment brake pads while targeting lower dust output and quieter operation. The low-met friction compound is ECE-R90 certified, confirming it meets or exceeds the stopping power and fade resistance of the original brake pad specification. Each pad is equipped with a premium multi-layer shim that dampens vibration and eliminates brake squeal, delivering the quiet, smooth, confident braking feel expected from an AMG-spec vehicle. This set is a direct fit requiring no hardware modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrembo P50099 premium low-met OE-equivalent rear brake pads for 2014-2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eECE-R90 certified friction compound meets or exceeds OE stopping power and fade resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormulated specifically for the North American market driving conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium multi-layer shim dampens noise and vibration for quiet, confident braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-met compound produces less brake dust compared to semi-metallic alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect OE-equivalent fit for CLA45 AMG rear calipers, no modification required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrembo-grade friction materials from the world's leading brake manufacturer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYear Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMake\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTrim\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2014-2019\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMercedes-Benz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCLA45 AMG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCLA45 AMG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMPN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eP50099\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrembo OE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePad Compound\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePremium Low-Met\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePosition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCertification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eECE-R90 Approved\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShim Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMulti-Layer Premium Shim\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNorth American Formulation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOE Equivalent Direct Fit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e814687026891\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 set of Brembo P50099 rear brake pads (both sides)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium multi-layer shims (pre-attached)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat vehicles does the Brembo P50099 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Brembo P50099 fits 2014-2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG at the rear axle. It is not listed for the GLA45 AMG or any other AMG variant. Verify fitment by cross-referencing your VIN before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is ECE-R90 certification?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eECE-R90 is a European regulatory standard that mandates replacement brake pads must demonstrate stopping performance within ten percent of the original equipment specification under standardized testing conditions. Brembo's low-met compound receives this certification independently, confirming it meets the same baseline safety standard as the factory CLA45 AMG brake pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the low-met compound differ from semi-metallic or ceramic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLow-metallic compounds use a smaller percentage of metallic content than semi-metallic pads, which reduces rotor wear and brake dust at the cost of slightly higher operating temperatures. Low-met is the OE-preferred formulation for European vehicles because it provides progressive, linear bite across the full temperature range typical of street and moderate performance driving, without the harshness of high-metallic or race compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill the Brembo P50099 reduce brake squeal on my CLA45 AMG?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The premium multi-layer shim included with the P50099 is designed to absorb the high-frequency vibrations between the caliper piston and the pad backing plate that cause squeal. Proper bedding of the pads immediately after installation is also critical to eliminating noise and establishing the optimal friction layer on the rotor surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need to replace my rotors when installing the Brembo P50099?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot necessarily. If your current rotors are within minimum thickness specification and show no scoring, heat cracks, or severe pitting, the Brembo P50099 pads can be installed on the existing rotors after a light cleaning and surface preparation. If the rotors are at or below minimum thickness, rotor replacement is required regardless of pad brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Brembo P50099 require any break-in procedure?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. After installation, perform 10 to 15 moderate brake applications from approximately 35 mph down to 5 mph with at least 30 seconds of cool-down time between each application. Avoid coming to a complete stop during break-in to prevent pad material from depositing unevenly on the rotor. This bedding process establishes the optimal friction layer and ensures consistent, quiet performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Brembo P50099 a direct fit for the CLA45 AMG rear caliper?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The P50099 is engineered as a direct OE-equivalent replacement for the factory rear brake pads on the 2014-2019 CLA45 AMG. No modification to the caliper, bracket, or hardware is required. The pad dimensions, backing plate size, and shim configuration match the factory specification exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow does Brembo OE compare to Brembo's performance pad lines?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrembo OE pads are formulated to replicate the original equipment specification, prioritizing consistent everyday performance, low dust, and quiet operation. Brembo's performance lines such as the Sport and Race compounds use higher metallic content for greater fade resistance and higher operating temperature ceilings, at the cost of increased dust and noise levels. For street use on a CLA45 AMG, the OE compound is the appropriate choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafely raise and support the vehicle on jack stands.
