The black caliper finish delivers a factory-custom appearance through the wheel spokes, matching the look of performance and sport brake kits found on higher-spec vehicles. The Z36 drilled and slotted rotor design improves heat dissipation and debris clearance compared to the stock smooth rotor, while the carbon-fiber ceramic pad compound provides stronger friction performance and significantly less wheel dust than OEM semi-metallic pads. All hardware and brake lubricant are included for a complete installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack powder-coated remanufactured rear calipers for a custom, performance-oriented appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZ36 drilled and slotted rear rotors for heat dissipation and consistent pad bite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon-fiber ceramic brake pads for strong friction performance and low dust output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect-fit replacement for the 2007-2020 Cadillac Escalade rear brake system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll hardware and brake lubricant included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacked by PowerStop's 3-year\/36,000-mile limited warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eVehicle Fitment\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\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2007-2020\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCadillac\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEscalade\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\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBS5030BLK\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZ36 with Black Calipers\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\u003eCaliper Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack powder-coated (remanufactured)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRotor Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDrilled and slotted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePad Compound\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbon-fiber ceramic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-year\/36,000-mile limited\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold As\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eComplete rear kit (calipers, rotors, and pads)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eN\/A\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\u003e2x PowerStop black powder-coated remanufactured rear calipers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x PowerStop Z36 drilled and slotted rear rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 set PowerStop Z36 carbon-fiber ceramic rear brake pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel hardware kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake lubricant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout PowerStop\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowerStop is a leading aftermarket brake manufacturer producing drilled and slotted rotor and pad kits, complete caliper kits, and performance brake upgrades for a wide range of domestic and import vehicles.

It includes drilled and slotted rear rotors, carbon-fiber ceramic pads, and remanufactured rear calipers finished in black powder coat for a custom performance appearance combined with an upgraded braking system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre the calipers in the BS5030BLK new or remanufactured?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe calipers included in the PowerStop BS5030BLK are remanufactured OEM-spec calipers. PowerStop rebuilds each caliper to OEM specifications, coats them in the branded colored powder coat finish, and includes them in the kit ready to install. Remanufactured calipers offer the same direct-fit installation as new calipers at a lower cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the black powder-coat finish look like on the Escalade?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black powder-coated calipers are visible through the wheel spokes on most stock and aftermarket wheels. The blacked-out caliper finish provides a more aggressive, intentional appearance compared to the natural gray bare metal look of OEM calipers. The black finish is durable and resists heat discoloration better than spray paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need to replace the front brakes at the same time?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrake technicians recommend replacing brakes in axle sets for consistent stopping balance. If the rear brakes are worn or being upgraded to the Z36 system, the front brakes should be inspected and upgraded simultaneously if worn. Mismatched front-to-rear braking performance affects stopping behavior under emergency braking or heavy towing conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre the Z36 pads compatible with my daily-driven Escalade?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. PowerStop Z36 carbon-fiber ceramic pads are engineered for both daily street driving and heavy-duty demands. The compound provides quiet operation and low dust output compared to semi-metallic OEM pads, making them a practical upgrade for daily use in addition to the improved high-load performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo the BS5030BLK rotors require a bed-in procedure?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. A proper brake bed-in procedure is required after installing any new rotors and pads to transfer an even layer of pad material onto the rotor surface. PowerStop includes detailed bed-in instructions with the kit. Completing bed-in before hard braking use prevents uneven deposits and brake judder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat warranty covers the BS5030BLK?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowerStop backs the Z36 series and caliper kits with a 3-year\/36,000-mile limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship from the date of purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill the black calipers fade or peel over time?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowerStop uses a high-temperature powder coat process that resists fading and peeling significantly better than spray paint or standard enamel. The finish is specifically formulated to withstand the heat cycles generated during braking. Some surface contamination from brake dust over time is normal but does not affect the structural integrity of the caliper or pad performance.\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.
