Wagner Brake QC1846 Disc Brake Pad Set - Rear
Rear Brake Pads for Mazda CX-5
Wagner Brake ThermoQuiet QC1846 rear disc brake pads are built for 2016-2025 Mazda CX-5 applications. This brake pad set uses a ceramic friction material with slotted, chamfered pad faces and a mechanical wear sensor for consistent service feedback.
The ThermoQuiet line focuses on quieter braking performance through Wagner’s Integrally Molded Insulator technology and a zero-copper friction formulation. For Mazda CX-5 rear brake service, QC1846 combines OE-style fitment details with pad shims, abutment clips, and wear sensor provisions already accounted for in the design.
