In brief

The two parts must be considered together.

Useful to know

HELLA regards the disc as the direct friction partner of the pads and coordinates their development. Among the variants are various materials, coatings and structures. [1]

Do not determine compatibility only by the external diameter: the specific performance and mounting dimensions are also essential. If there is vibration or uneven wear, the observation should cover the node, not just the visible glossy surface. This text does not set allowable wear or beating for each vehicle; the values come from the documentation of the specific braking system.
