Bosch QuietCast Ceramic Rear Brake Pad Set BC1451 — OE-Style, Low-Dust, Quiet Performance

Bosch BC1451 QuietCast rear ceramic brake pads are a premium OE-style replacement set engineered for quiet, low-dust stopping and long-lasting corrosion resistance.

Built from Bosch's decades of braking experience, the QuietCast BC1451 set provides a direct-fit rear axle solution for compatible Honda and Acura models. These pads combine a proprietary ceramic friction compound, multilayer rubber-core shims, and powder-coated backing plates so you get dependable braking feel with reduced noise, less visible dust, and improved lifespan over many generic replacements. The package arrives ready for installation with the pads for one axle, vehicle-specific hardware where applicable, and synthetic lubricant for sliding contact points.

How do these pads reduce noise during braking?

The BC1451 uses pre-attached multi-layer rubber-core shims that are bonded to the pad backing. This multilayer shim system dampens vibrations between the caliper and rotor, producing quieter engagement and minimizing common squeal or chatter.

• Pre-attached OE-style multilayer rubber-core shims for vibration control
• Molded Shim Technology (MST) ensures a strong, consistent bond
• Chamfered edges and slots help progressive pad-to-rotor contact

What performance can I expect from the ceramic friction material?

Bosch engineers formulated the ceramic compound for stable friction across everyday temperatures and driving conditions. You’ll notice consistent pedal feel, effective stopping power, and substantially lower brake dust compared with many semi-metallic pads.

• Ceramic formulation designed for predictable, repeatable stopping
• Low-dust operation keeps wheels cleaner longer
• Balanced wear characteristics that preserve rotor life

Will these pads resist corrosion and fit my vehicle properly?

The backing plates feature a corrosion-resistant powder coat to protect against rust and extend pad life in wet or salty conditions. Bosch supplies OE-style slots and chamfers and offers vehicle-specific fitment — verify fit with your vehicle's year, make, and trim before purchase.

• Powder-coated backing plates for rust protection
• OE-style slots and chamfers for correct pad seating and fit
• Includes hardware kit and synthetic lubricant where applicable

How easy is installation and what’s included?

The set includes four pads — a full rear-axle complement — plus any needed hardware for compatible vehicles and a small tube of synthetic lubricant to ease sliding contact. Because the pads are shaped to OE specifications, they install like an original equipment replacement when matched to the correct application.

• Complete rear axle pad set (2 wheels) — ready to install
• Hardware kit included when required for your vehicle
• Synthetic lubricant provided for caliper slide points

Who is this for: Drivers of compatible Acura and Honda models (for example, certain Acura TSX and Honda Accord years) who want a factory-quality ceramic replacement that emphasizes quiet stops, lower dust, and strong corrosion protection. Ideal for owners replacing rear pads with an eye toward durable performance and a clean wheel appearance—verify vehicle fitment using your model year and trim before ordering.
