Hawk Performance HPS Street Brake Pads

1994–2010 Dodge Ram / Durango Various Engines

Part #: HB299F.650

Overview

The Hawk Performance HPS Street Brake Pads are engineered to provide a substantial upgrade in braking performance for a wide range of Dodge Ram and Durango models from 1994 through 2010. Designed specifically for street-driven trucks and SUVs, these pads deliver enhanced stopping power while maintaining the smooth, quiet operation expected in daily driving conditions.

Ideal for drivers who demand improved safety and confidence on the road, the HPS compound offers 20 to 40 percent more stopping force compared to standard factory pads. This ensures quicker, more controlled stops whether navigating city streets or highway traffic. Additionally, these pads resist brake fade, providing consistent pedal feel even under heavy use such as towing or hauling.

Key Features

Hawk Performance HPS Street Brake Pads utilize advanced materials and design to elevate your vehicle’s braking capabilities without sacrificing comfort or longevity. Key features include:

• High Performance Street (HPS) friction compound delivering 20–40% more braking force than OEM pads
• Excellent resistance to brake fade for reliable stopping power under demanding conditions
• Low dust generation to keep wheels cleaner and reduce maintenance
• Virtually noise-free operation thanks to anti-noise shims and optimized friction formulation
• Durable pad construction for extended service life and consistent performance
• 0.650 inch thickness optimized for precise fit and effective braking
• Engineered for both hot and cold braking conditions to maintain performance in all environments

Construction & Design

These brake pads are crafted using Hawk’s proprietary HPS friction material, which balances aggressive stopping power with street-friendly characteristics. The compound blends high-quality resins and friction modifiers to provide strong initial bite and excellent fade resistance without excessive wear or noise.

Each pad is precision-molded to ensure a perfect fit for Dodge Ram and Durango models equipped with standard calipers, maintaining consistent contact with the rotor surface. The robust backing plates are designed to minimize vibration and noise, contributing to a smooth and quiet braking experience.

Performance & Sound

The HPS compound maintains consistent friction levels even during repeated stops or when driving in hilly terrain, effectively reducing brake fade and ensuring dependable stopping power throughout your drive. Noise levels are minimized through advanced friction formulations and pre-installed anti-noise shims, eliminating the typical squeals often associated with performance brake pads.

Installation & Fitment

Hawk Performance HPS Street Brake Pads are direct replacements for factory pads on compatible Dodge Ram and Durango models from 1994 to 2010. Installation requires no modifications and fits standard calipers, making the upgrade straightforward for both professional mechanics and experienced DIY enthusiasts.

For optimal braking performance, it is recommended to inspect rotors and hardware during installation and replace or resurface as necessary to ensure proper pad seating and maximum efficiency.
