Hawk HB787B.582 HPS 5.0 Front Brake Pads for Chevrolet Camaro SS 2016-2024

Vehicle Fitment

• 2016-2024 Chevrolet Camaro SS (Gen 6, 6.2L LT1 V8, RWD) - Front, w/ 4-Piston Front Brake Calipers

Fitment Notes

• Position: Front axle only.
• Not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors. For use with iron/metal rotors only.
• This pad fits the 4-piston front caliper of the 6th-generation Camaro SS (2016-2024). It is a different pad shape from the HB726 series, which fits the standard single-piston sliding front caliper of the 5th-generation Camaro SS (2010-2015). Verify your Camaro generation before ordering.
• The 6th-generation Camaro SS uses the 6.2L LT1 naturally aspirated V8 throughout its 2016-2024 North American production run. All Camaro SS models are rear-wheel drive.
• The Camaro SS/1LE and SS with the optional Brembo front caliper package use a different pad than this fitment - confirm your specific front caliper configuration before ordering.
• No electronic wear sensor or hardware is included with this pad set.

Features

• HPS 5.0 (High Performance Street 5.0) Ferro-Carbon compound - The next evolution of Hawk's HPS formula, delivering greater front stopping power and improved pedal feel compared to the original HPS while maintaining street-appropriate noise, dust, and rotor wear characteristics - the premium front brake upgrade for 6th-generation Camaro SS owners who drive their car on public roads and demand improved front brake performance over OEM without the limitations of race compounds.
• Engineered for the 4-piston front caliper - The HPS 5.0 compound is specifically calibrated to work with the Gen 6 Camaro SS's 4-piston fixed front caliper, maximizing front brake torque through the increased clamping force of this four-piston system while keeping ABS engagement within its optimal operating window for shorter, more consistent stopping distances.
• Decreased front stopping distances - Delivers noticeably shorter front stopping distances compared to OEM replacement pads, translating the 4-piston front caliper's substantial clamping force into more aggressive deceleration from each brake application.
• Improved pedal feel from initial contact through the full stroke - The HPS 5.0's progressive, linear friction profile provides consistent, informative front brake response for precise pedal feedback when driving the high-powered, rear-wheel-drive Camaro SS at spirited pace.
• Minimal fade under elevated temperatures - Withstands the sustained heat generated by aggressive street driving, canyon runs, and light track use on the Gen 6 Camaro SS, maintaining consistent front brake performance through the elevated thermal demands that OEM replacement pads approach their limits.
• Great rotor and pad wear life - The HPS 5.0 Ferro-Carbon formulation balances higher friction output with extended pad and rotor service life, producing less front disc wear than race compounds while delivering substantially more performance than standard street replacements.
• Very quiet with low dust output - Operates near-silently with minimal wheel contamination, preserving the premium performance character of the Gen 6 Camaro SS without the noise and brake dust associated with race-classification front compounds.
• Smooth and predictable front brake release - Delivers consistent, clean front brake release supporting stable RWD chassis behavior and confident braking balance on the Camaro SS's rear-wheel-drive platform.
• 100% asbestos, lead, chromium, cadmium, and antimony free - Manufactured in an ISO-certified facility to strict quality and environmental standards.

Product Description

The Hawk HB787B.582 HPS 5.0 front brake pads are engineered for the 4-piston fixed front caliper of the 6th-generation Chevrolet Camaro SS (2016-2024), covering all Camaro SS models equipped with the 6.2L LT1 V8 in rear-wheel-drive configuration throughout the generation's North American production run. This is a distinct pad shape from the HB726 series, which fits the 5th-generation Camaro SS (2010-2015) with a standard sliding front caliper - the Gen 6 Camaro SS's 4-piston fixed front caliper requires this HB787 shape. The Camaro SS/1LE with the optional Brembo front caliper uses a different pad; confirm your specific front caliper configuration before ordering.

HPS 5.0 is the natural front brake upgrade for Gen 6 Camaro SS owners who drive their car on public roads and want improved front stopping performance over OEM replacement pads. The compound delivers measurably shorter front stopping distances from the 4-piston caliper's increased clamping force, improves pedal feel across the full front brake stroke, and resists fade through the elevated temperatures of spirited street driving and light autocross use - all without the noise, dust, and cold-temperature limitations of race-classification compounds. The compound's ABS-compatible tuning maximizes front brake effectiveness through the Camaro SS's ABS system, making it equally effective for daily commuting and enthusiast driving.

This pad is for the front axle only. A separate rear pad is required for a complete front-and-rear brake upgrade. Compatible with iron and metal rotors only; carbon ceramic brake discs are not supported.
