ThermoQuiet Product Line Features
The ThermoQuiet line by Wagner Brake focuses on delivering quiet, smooth braking with ceramic friction technology. This product line is designed to reduce noise and vibration while maintaining effective stopping power. The QC833B disc brake pads benefit from these features, providing a balance of performance and comfort for Ford vehicles requiring reliable brake components.
Detailed Product Description
The QC833B disc brake pad set features ceramic friction material on both the outer and inner pads, each with a thickness of 0.655 inches. Ceramic pads are known for producing less brake dust and offering quieter operation compared to semi-metallic alternatives. The inclusion of pad shims helps to further reduce noise and ensure a secure fit within the brake caliper. Chamfered edges on the pads assist in preventing brake squeal and promote even pad wear. This set does not include pad wear sensors or abutment clips, so verify compatibility with your vehicle's brake system before installation.
