Detailed Product Description

The Wagner Brake PD698 disc brake pad set is engineered with ceramic friction material that offers consistent braking performance and lower dust generation compared to semi-metallic pads. The slotted design helps channel heat away from the braking surface, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use. Chamfered edges and included pad shims work together to minimize noise and vibration, contributing to a smoother driving experience. The mechanical pad wear sensor alerts drivers when pad replacement is necessary, helping maintain optimal brake system function. This set includes abutment clips to ensure proper pad alignment and secure fitment.
