The Timbren BES Severe Duty Semi-Metallic Brake Pads are engineered for truck owners who demand exceptional stopping power under heavy loads. Designed specifically for Dodge and Ram trucks from 2005 through 2024, these brake pads provide a severe-duty upgrade tailored to vehicles frequently operating at or near their maximum Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). Unlike conventional ceramic pads that focus on low dust output, these pads prioritize performance and safety, delivering a firm, responsive brake pedal and a strong initial bite to reduce stopping distances when towing or hauling.
Built to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty use, the OnyxBite™ compound in these pads offers superior thermal stability and resistance to glazing, ensuring consistent braking performance even under extreme conditions. This makes them an ideal choice for truck owners who rely on their vehicles for work, towing trailers, boats, or carrying heavy payloads.

- High-friction, low-metallic OnyxBite™ compound for enhanced stopping power
- Thermally stable formulation resists glazing and fade under heavy use
- Multi-layer rubber shims and precision chamfers reduce brake noise and vibration
- Fully compliant with 2025 copper-free environmental standards
- Designed specifically for Dodge Dakota, Dodge Ram 1500, Ram 1500 Classic, and Dodge Durango models with specified engines
- Includes a complete stainless steel hardware kit for professional-grade installation
- Backed by a 42-month or 42,000-mile warranty for long-term reliability
Construction & Design
The Timbren BES brake pads utilize a semi-metallic friction material that balances durability and performance. The OnyxBite™ compound incorporates a high-friction blend with low metallic content to optimize brake bite without excessive wear or noise. The pads feature multi-layer rubber shims that act as vibration dampeners, while precision chamfers on the pad edges help prevent uneven wear and brake squeal. This robust construction ensures the pads maintain consistent contact with the rotor, delivering reliable braking force under demanding conditions.
Performance & Sound
These brake pads are engineered to provide a firm and responsive pedal feel, crucial for safely stopping heavy trucks and trailers. The OnyxBite™ compound delivers a strong initial bite, reducing stopping distances and improving control during towing or hauling. Additionally, the integrated shims and chamfers minimize harmonic vibrations and eliminate the squeal commonly associated with heavy-duty brake pads, resulting in a quieter, more comfortable driving experience.
Installation & Fitment
Installation of the Timbren BES Severe Duty Semi-Metallic Brake Pads is straightforward and designed to fit the specified Dodge and Ram models without modification. Each set includes a stainless steel hardware kit to replace worn or corroded components, ensuring a secure and noise-free fit. These pads are a direct replacement for factory front brake pads on the listed vehicles, making them an ideal upgrade for owners seeking enhanced braking performance without complicated installation.
