Technically it is possible to combine ATE Ceramic brake pads with the PowerDisc or with perforated brake discs. The brak ing power with such a pairing is the same as with an origina l ATE brake pad or OE brake pad. However, when the two compo nents interact they can generate more noise in braking. ATE Ceramic brake pads were developed for comfort-oriented drive rs. We therefore recommend using them with normal brake disc s, i.e. smooth ones.

For vehicles without ABS, a PowerDisc can be used on the rea r axle only if there is one on the front axle. The General Operating Permit (ABE) for the PowerDisc applies to operation on German roads in accordance with the German Road Traffic Registration Ordinance (StVZO). Other countries may require additional type approvals for use on roads.
