Detailed Features and Specifications

The QC829 disc brake pads from Wagner Brake’s ThermoQuiet line incorporate ceramic friction material, which is known for providing consistent braking performance while generating less dust compared to semi-metallic pads. Both the outer and inner pads have a friction material thickness of 0.622 inches, ensuring durability and extended service life. The pads feature a slotted design that helps dissipate heat more effectively, reducing the risk of brake fade during demanding driving conditions.

Chamfered edges on the pads help reduce noise and vibration, contributing to a quieter braking experience. Included pad shims further assist in noise reduction. The mechanical pad wear sensor alerts drivers when it’s time to replace the pads, helping maintain optimal brake system performance. This set does not include abutment clips.
