Wagner Brake PD291 Disc Brake Pad Set - Front

Wagner ThermoQuiet PD291 Front Brake Pads

Wagner Brake ThermoQuiet PD291 disc brake pad set is built for front brake service on select 1984-1987 Subaru Standard models. It combines a ceramic friction formula with slotted pad faces and an integrated mechanical wear sensor for straightforward replacement and consistent braking performance.

The ThermoQuiet line focuses on quieter operation and clean stopping characteristics. For Subaru Standard front brake pad replacement, PD291 provides an OE-style fit with features aimed at reducing noise and maintaining stable pedal feel.

Key Features

• Ceramic friction material for controlled braking response
• Integrally molded insulator technology for quieter operation
• Slotted pad design to support heat and debris management
• Pad shims included for noise control
• Mechanical pad wear sensor included
• Outer and inner friction material thickness: 0.58
• FMSI number 7193-D291

Detailed Product Overview

Wagner Brake PD291 is part of the ThermoQuiet product line, which pairs a zero-copper friction formulation with an integrally molded insulator to reduce brake noise. This front disc brake pad set is engineered for 1984-1987 Subaru Standard applications and meets OEM specifications for the listed fitment. The ceramic compound supports predictable braking, while the included shims and wear sensor add value for a complete front brake pad replacement.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. The Wagner Brake PD291 name is also commonly searched as a front brake pad set for Subaru Standard front brake service.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Squealing or noisy front brakes
• Worn front brake pads triggering service indicators
• Reduced braking consistency from aged pad material
• Brake vibration or uneven pad contact related to worn friction surfaces
• Front brake maintenance on 1984-1987 Subaru Standard models

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible With 1984-1987 Subaru Standard, front. Verify rotor condition, caliper operation, and pad fitment before installation. Clean the caliper bracket and pad contact points, and confirm the mechanical wear sensor is routed correctly during assembly. Because chamfered edges are not listed for this pad set, careful inspection of rotor condition and hardware alignment is important during service.

Quality Assurance

Wagner Brake ThermoQuiet pads are built around a zero-copper friction formulation and IMI technology for quieter operation. The PD291 front brake pad set is specified with ceramic friction material, included shims, and an included mechanical wear sensor for a service-ready replacement on the listed Subaru Standard applications.
