Disc Brake Kits in Canada

A complete disc brake kit is the most efficient way to perform a full axle disc brake service. The friction components, rotor surface finish, pad compound, and caliper hardware all function as an integrated system. Sourcing each element separately introduces compatibility variables that manifest as brake noise, vibration, or inconsistent pedal feel in the first months of service. A disc brake kit from GeoBrakes eliminates those variables, one order, one delivery, every component matched and confirmed for your exact vehicle.

What's Included in a Disc Brake Kit?

• Disc brake rotors, front or rear pair, OEM spec or performance spec depending on kit level
• Brake pads, ceramic or semi-metallic, compound-matched to the rotor specification
• Caliper hardware kit, slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float
• Brake lubricant, for correct caliper pin and shim installation
• Anti-squeal shims, where applicable for your vehicle
• Rotor mounting hardware, retaining screws where required

Three Kit Levels to Match Every Canadian Driver

OEM replacement disc brake kits restore factory braking performance exactly, the correct specification for everyday commuting, family vehicles, and light trucks. Antirust coated disc brake kits are the most practical choice for Canadian drivers: zinc-coated or e-coated rotor surfaces resist the rust that plain rotors develop within days of road salt exposure, maintaining consistent friction performance and protecting rotor appearance through multiple winter seasons. Performance disc brake kits use cross-drilled and slotted rotors with high-performance pads, designed for towing, mountain driving, or vehicles where sustained braking generates temperatures beyond what factory-spec rotors manage effectively.

Why Correct Hardware Is as Important as the Friction Components

Caliper slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips are the most commonly overlooked components in a brake service, and the most common cause of brake noise complaints after a pad change. Sticking slide pins prevent the caliper from floating freely, causing the outer pad to wear faster than the inner and producing a scraping noise from partial disc contact. Fatigued anti-rattle clips allow the pad to vibrate in the bracket, creating a rattle on rough roads. Every GeoBrakes disc brake kit includes fresh hardware as a standard component, not an optional add-on.

Why GeoBrakes for Disc Brake Kits?

Our disc brake kit range is built specifically for the Canadian market, with coated rotor options at every kit level to address the road salt corrosion that shortens rotor life more than friction wear in most Canadian driving environments. As an authorized retailer of Cardone, EBC, Brembo, Raybestos, and Akebono, every kit ships with full manufacturer warranty coverage. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct kit for your year, make, model, and axle position before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions About Disc Brake Kits

Q: Should I buy a front kit, rear kit, or both?

A: Front brakes handle 60–70% of braking force and wear faster. If only one axle is due for service, buy that kit. If both axles need service simultaneously, combining them in one order above $99 qualifies the full purchase for free Canada-wide delivery.

Q: What rotor type should I choose for Canadian conditions?

A: For everyday commuting and highway driving, an antirust coated OEM kit is the most practical choice, it delivers factory-level performance while resisting the corrosion plain rotors develop rapidly in road salt conditions. For towing, performance driving, or mountain routes, a drilled-and-slotted performance kit provides improved heat management.

Q: How long do disc brake kits last?

A: Under normal Canadian driving, a quality disc brake kit typically lasts 50,000 to 70,000 kilometres. Antirust coated kits tend to last longer because corrosion, not just friction wear, is a major cause of early rotor replacement in Canada.
