Wagner Brake MX266A Disc Brake Pad Set - Front

ThermoQuiet Front Brake Pads for Nissan and INFINITI

Wagner Brake ThermoQuiet MX266A disc brake pad set is built for front brake service on select Nissan and INFINITI applications. It combines a semi-metallic friction formula with slotted, chamfered pad design and an integrated mechanical wear sensor for direct replacement use on covered vehicles.

The ThermoQuiet line focuses on quieter operation through Wagner’s Integrally Molded Insulator (IMI) technology and a zero-copper friction formulation. For drivers searching for front brake pads for a 1986-1994 Nissan D21, 1994-1997 Nissan Pickup, or 1985-1988 Nissan Maxima, MX266A provides an OE-style service option with fitment-specific coverage.

Detailed Description

MX266A is a front brake pad set engineered for select Nissan 300ZX, Nissan 200SX, Nissan Maxima, Nissan D21, Nissan Pickup, and INFINITI M30 applications. The pad design uses semi-metallic friction material with slotted faces and chamfered edges to support stable contact and even wear during normal braking service. Wagner’s ThermoQuiet construction adds IMI technology to reduce noise transfer at the pad backing interface.

This part cross-references Raybestos Brakes PGD266M for the same application. It also aligns with common replacement searches for front brake pads for Nissan D21, front brake pads for Nissan Pickup, and front brake pads for Nissan Maxima.

What It Helps Address

• Squealing or brake noise during stops
• Worn front pads that trigger the mechanical wear sensor
• Reduced braking performance from aged friction material
• Uneven pad wear on front disc brake service
• Replacement needs for OE-style front brake maintenance

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor condition, caliper movement, and pad fitment before installation. Confirm the vehicle uses the listed front application and compare the existing pad shape to FMSI 7282-D266. Replace worn hardware only if required by the vehicle service procedure; abutment clips are not included with this pad set.

Compatible With 1984-1988 Nissan 300ZX, front; 1985-1988 Nissan Maxima, front; 1986-1994 Nissan D21, front; 1987-1988 Nissan 200SX, front; 1990-1992 INFINITI M30, front; 1994-1997 Nissan Pickup, front. For 1989 Nissan 300ZX, front, this application is listed for vehicles built to 02/1989 and OE pad material is semi-metallic.

Quality Assurance

Wagner Brake ThermoQuiet pads are built around a zero-copper friction formulation and IMI noise-reduction technology for controlled, quiet front brake service. MX266A is a direct-fit replacement part for the listed applications and follows the specified pad shape, sensor type, and friction material requirements.
